Out of the way places that are hard to get to that the average American or European tourist wouldn't dream of going to are my idea of the perfect vacation destinations. Give me a tiny place with maybe one other couple (if that), run by a nice couple who treat you like family. Heaven. Giant Cruise ship: NOT heaven.
The ship is impressive in it's own right though.

+1!!
Nobody loves the ocean more than me. But to be stuck on that thing with all those people for a week... No thanks!! I go on vacation to get away from the crowds.
The one cruise I do want to take, although the wife would never go for it, is one of those "cargo cruises" where you are a passenger on a commercial vessel with a few other people, that makes deliveries from island to island. Something about that seems pretty cool. I know a few friends that have done that and they loved it.
