I like cruises.

I spend my days dealing with problems, making decisions so a vacation should not involve yet more decision making.

I like the captive vibe. Got a day at full day at sea, forced to sit by the pool and read a book or take a nap. No decisions on where to go for dinner. Kids go to "camp" while shipboard. Send em off in the morning and don't have to deal with them till dinner.

And those boats are huge so even with thousands of people on them I've never been on one that felt crowded.

They're not for everyone but they work for me.
