My sister in law and I have been looking for cruises during July. It’s just going to be four of us (my bf, me, her and her husband) and since it’s the first time my bf and I will cruise and we REALLY need a vacation, we thought it would be fun to go on the Dream cruise. My sis in law thinks it’s too expensive for her and her husband since they have other vacation plans with their kids as well. Also, they feel it’s too long and they’ve cruise a few times before and they told us that by the 5th day you really just want to get out of the ship. The Dream Cruise goes for a whole week and the itinerary I was looking at was for the Bahamas, St.Thomas, and St. Marteen. Now we really want a ship that goes that way but that we don’t have to fly into P.R to get to it. Is there any other ships that cruise to the east part of the caribbean but leave from Miami and that are 3-5 days? Or that go to Jamaica, Cayman Islands, and Mexico? During July only!

Help please
Oh and if you’ve been on the Dream, is it fun? Is it better to go in a group or more fun if I just go with my bf?
Milkman: Thank you for telling me that it’s not boring to be on a cruise ship for more than 5 days. Like I you know, I have a boyfriend and I have NO clue why you would even bring up all the dirty stuff you can do on a cruise ship. I leave that for skanks and whores. I’m not one of those type of girls

I was excited and thrilled to go to the ports on our Eastern Caribbean cruise, but after reading a few articles about crime, I am very worried and not sure about exploring. My travel agent said she felt Bermuda was very safe and her and her husband rented scooters to explore the island.

However I read this article: http://www.bahamasb2b.com/news/story.php?title=violent-crime-rising-against-tourists-in-the-caribbean

And I am not sure anymore. I also read the story of Rebecca Middleton who was killed and sodomized in Bermuda in 1996. She was a canadien tourist. I am so freaked out!!

Our ports are: Bermuda, St. Thomas, St. Maarten, and San Juan Puerto Rico. Are these places safe? Which are more worriesome than others? Please help I am worried about my vacation

I am looking for an island I can move to in the Caribbean or elsewhere that has at least some flat elevation I can move to. I will be homeless by choice when arriving and will be sleeping in a hammock on the beach somewhere. Any place that has some degree of flat land in areas that matter would be helpful. Also, if tourism wasn’t surging that would help. I was thinking St. Croix, USVI because it is less of a popualr attraction as opposed to St. Thomas. But I’m not sure any flat land exists on St. Croix. I was thinking Little Cayman but I don’t know how well that is policed and I am a US Citizen. What about central america or south america? I have no idea how I will find work but I’m hoping I can find a beach shack to get started at. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks!

Hey. I want to go somewhere next summer. Maybe a cruise but im not sure where to go. I’ve been on 3 cruises which went to Bahamas, St. Maarten, St Thomas, Turks and Caicos, Puerto Rico, Haiti, Cayman Island, Jamaica, and Mexico. What other destinations do you recommend. I really want to go on another cruise with none of the same islands. It has to be in July or August 09 only. Any places you recommend? I really wanted to go on a cruise to Tahiti or to Aruba and Trinidad but they don’t have any ships that go there in the summer. If you can’t find a cruise, are there any nice places you recommend? And if you do find a cruise,I like Royal Caribbean and Princess Cruise line. I don’t want any Carnival cruises.

Thanks=]

we are looking to "elope" with my best friend and his brother – only four people – NOT A DESTINATION WEDDING. we want an all inclusive i think… not exactly sure if its worth it. never been to all inclusive. but want to marry on beach – no passport required a must as we are looking to go in june. i want a beautiful hotel that is has great service – friendly more than fancy – because i think that makes such a difference. i would love to hear any bride or groom to give me any feedback good or bad – please help… – i find it hard to look for our unique situation and the resorts i was recommended to in st. thomas have horrible reviews. He loves to fish and golf – we are not looking for the cheapest deal necessarily but would love someone to tell me a place they loved and why – preferably in the us virgin islands. st thomas, st johns, st croix– (also if you know of one in florida, or hawaii not ruling them out…) Help:)

My boyfriend and I are heading there in June. We are going to be staying on St. John. I was wondering if anyone who has been there have any advice on where to go or what to do? We are pretty active. I want to scuba dive, fish, maybe do some hiking, and of course lay on the beach!
ST. THOMAS… not St. John.. sorry!

going on vacation and am driving to winnipeg then flying from winnipeg to chicago, then chicago to boston using UNITED airway. I do not have the information but am flying to St.Thomas in the virgin islands, but probably somewhere around there as it’s probably hard to get a direct flight there. Going back though we are taking Delta fro Charlotte Amalie to Atlanta, atlanta to minniapolis and from there to winnipeg. I was wondering what the carry on limits are as I would like to take a laptop bag as well as a purse, would this be possible? thanks everyone!

On one hand, I really want to go to different islands like listed above b/c I really do not want to be stuck in one place. On the other hand, I do not want to be rushed to not miss the ship b/c I want to go and do a bunch of stuff. Some sightseeing things can take a few hours. I really do not know where to go on vacation. Anyone have any recommendations in the Bahamas? I really want to swim with dolphins, see other wildlife, swim (of course), see waterfalls/nature, rainforests, etc etc Ughh I’m just so flustered LOL b/c I want to just do so much stuff.
