I think there should be more adult only hot tubs available. Too many little ones in the hot tubs.

Most sailings find children in the pool deck hot tubs. Always use the hot tubs in the solarium to avoid them. I want to try a Virgin Voyages cruise, adults only.

So glad you enjoyed. We have traveled on several lines, some we like more than others. It seems for us it depends on which one has what we want (places & ports).

Chinds97, we have done several cruiselines (budget friendly and expensive). Loved them all. Try Viking Cruises. They truly do provide everything. Our first with them was Grand European. It was absolutely amazing.

Welcome to the family. If there's a cure for this bug, I don't want it.
