Can I just say something which I am SURE will have people jumping all over my back (but I'm going to say it anyway)? Can we just stop a minute and think about how ridiculous we all sound? We're arguing over which cruise ship is better. Something that is a luxury that many, many people in this world will never, ever even get to experience. Heck, I have some kids in my class who have never even been to Build-a-Bear Workshop and who are dying to go there and can't wait for our class trip on Thursday because it's their only opportunity, and here we are going on and on about how this cruise ship is better and that one is better but being so mean about it.
Yes, some people are going to like the cruise ships that have those things that are the ooh and ahh factors and some people are going to like the ships that are quieter and more low key. Bottom line, you all do you and love and experience what you want to love and experience. I feel like it has become so prevalent nowadays for someone to tell someone else that their opinion is wrong. When did this become acceptable? If some of you are priced out of Disney, I'm sorry. We are beginning to feel that way too. And if some of you are bored of Disney because they don't have that WOW factor for you anymore, that's ok too. It's one less person I'm in competition with on Gold booking opening day to book my room
. But to tell someone how awful their opinion is because they like chain or celebrity restaurants on another cruise line or a rock climbing wall or a crazy water slide is kinda spoiled sounding. I say all this having cruised both DCL and Celebrity cruise line. I can say that DCL is my absolute favorite because it caters to my current needs and wants but it's also a haven for good memories I have with my family before my dad passed away. Celebrity's crowd was a little old for me and I found the decor a little cheesy. But if those old people on board loved it, well, good for them! I'm willing to try other lines and the thing I love about DISboards is it's a place to go for information and research when I'm planning my next vacation (I don't know where some of you dig up information about things - I hope you guys are detectives or work for the CIA or FBI or something!). And if those other lines have a rock climbing wall, you certainly won't find my uncoordinated behind on it.
Just saying, guys. Maybe be can all be a little nicer about our opinions because really, this is case of #firstworldproblems.
(let the jumping on my back begin.......)
