Cruise Paradise.

In this article, I still want to try to convey to you not the material advantage of cruises (all inclusive), not the excursion advantage (many countries in one trip), but what cannot be measured in material terms. What is inside, what is in thoughts, the feeling of why you want to return.

Does this happen to you?

There are places that you visited, did not like, do not eat anymore.

I liked the places you visited, but don’t eat either, because there’s nothing more to do there, you’ve already done everything at once.

And there are places where you want and want to return.

Those who travel a lot will understand me.

On our first cruise in 3 days I felt this condition, but it did not take shape in my concrete thoughts, why, in fact, I liked it so much.

But during the second cruise in 7 days, I clearly understood my perception of what was happening and now I am ready to convey these thoughts to you.

Next, a few of my thoughts, as, in fact, should look like philosophical thoughts about being, in this case, on a cruise. :)

Try to imagine, at least mentally.

3000-6000 people in one place, on a huge 12-15-story cruise ship. All people came for one purpose - to relax. Each of them is beautifully dressed, with a set of the best and most beautiful outfits for relaxation, with tuxedos and evening dresses (yes, for a cruise this is a prerequisite, who does not know).

Women look amazingly beautiful. With different types of different hairstyles, pigtails, both adult women and children.

Some families come to sail the liner and to the “check-in” in the same T-shirts with the same inscriptions, which are made, it is immediately obvious for this family, for this particular cruise. It looks amazing when the composition of the family is 12-15 people, three generations, and all in the same tourist "uniform".

Women with hairstyles, in hats, all have super-fashionable manicure and jewelry.

You see the elderly, some very elderly, who are honored to drive or roll, and who are literally hung with cruise ribbons. Honorary Members. How many cruises have survived: 10-20-50-100?

The liner is ready to meet passengers. Each cabin is ready to receive guests. Everything is clean, cozy, miniature and comfortable, however, as befits a 5 * hotel.

And so the liner received all the passengers and set sail from the pier. It doesn’t matter for 3 days, 7 days or 14 days. It is important that all this enormous mass of people who entered the ship during this entire time will do only one thing - to rest.

People sailed on vacation. Each of them left all the worries somewhere out there, perhaps even in the port .... that's all. Cares are there, work is there, conflicts and misunderstanding in the family are there, problems at school, illnesses of relatives, divorces are all there. Somewhere left in a storage room in the port ...

And ahead - only fun, relaxation and new experiences.

And now try to imagine this floating cruise liner with several thousand passengers on board, as a kind of single egregore, in which there reigns a spirit of fun, relaxation and carelessness.

Do you know the feeling of spirit? Do you know how to feel something within you that energy, that aura, that atmosphere that surrounds you?

If - yes, then you will understand what I mean.

If not, then, once on a cruise, try to purposefully experience this spirit, I am sure you will understand what I mean.

This spirit reigns everywhere, throughout the ship. And the task of the staff is to make sure that you feel this spirit all the time, but the staff is not seen or heard.

There are no old and young. There are no restrictions for anyone.

No, there is +18 territory. :))) But this territory is just made so that adults can relax without the children’s hubbub, in peace and quiet. :)))

Zone +18 implies rest without children. For children - the rest of the liner without restrictions + animation and water rides.

It seems that you don’t do anything special when you are swimming, but this atmosphere of relaxation is everywhere.

Do you watch a movie on the big screen on the upper deck in the evening.

Or, waking up early in the morning, coming to the deck to the pool, you see hundreds of little animals from towels, carefully laid on each sunbed.

Or in the evening at dances, karaoke, piano music, theatrical performance, you find yourself, like in a theater ...

I bought a hat on my first cruise. So everywhere now I carry it with me. :)

And these dinners are in the form of "elegant", when all the ladies wear evening dresses, and the men wear formal suits or tuxedos .... Huge restaurant halls, hundreds of ladies and gentlemen in evening dresses and decorations ...

The spirit ... the atmosphere ... the spirit of the liner, the spirit of the cruise, the spirit of relaxation, relaxation and elegance.

Maybe we miss all of this in our daily lives?

Moreover, in the morning, all the people around you will get up early - early, have breakfast and, in ordinary T-shirts and shorts, go ashore for the whole day somewhere in Mexico, or in Honduras, or in the Bahamas in Nassau.

They will walk around the city, on excursions, on tourist attractions, and in the evening they will return to the liner, tired, spending on a souvenir and standard tourist trifles, and again will sail further.

And so - every day, during the whole time of your trip.

That's somehow it all happened in my head.

And I want to repeat all this again. Only for 10-14 days already.

I perfectly understand that not everyone will like it, not everyone will support my thoughts. Each of us is different, with his own expectation from trips, with his habits, with his own requirements and, of course, not every one of you will feel what I wrote, but this is not necessary, this is not important.

I just shared with you what I feel. And you are already free to choose whether to go on a cruise or not, if you are given the opportunity to try it or not. And, only through your experience will you understand whether your thoughts coincided with mine.

To be continued...
