I was just reading the boards looking for any last minute hints/advice since we leave for our 4 day cruise on Sunday. I had the TV on and it was tuned to CNN. Anyway, a segment on a new cruise ship really caught my attention. Apparently, this is the ultimate cruise ship for the filthy rich! You actually buy a 2 or 3 BR apartment for about 6-7 million ( I think that was the correct amount....I know it was in the millions):) Some interesting facts is that the average purchaser is 50 years old, average earnings per year is $50 million, and they plan to spend 4-6 months per year cruising the world. There is apparently 250 ports of call. It has a golf driving range on the top deck and the golf balls they use are suppose to be biodegradable within 24 hours after hitting the water. Very interesting :)
Well.....needless to say.....I don't think I'll ever be cruising on this ship unless I win the lottery!! Back to packing now:)
