It depends on the cruise. A nicer, longer, more expensive cruise will have a different vibe than a quick "booze cruise."

Personally, I hate cruises. It goes against my traveling M.O.

Yep, I completely agree with TG. Some people love cruises and others hate them. I''m sure you''ll have a great time with your bf and his family, that''s a really nice Xmas gift!

I have only gone to a few cruises, but most of them have been Disney cruises. Granted there were a lot of kids, but most of them did group activities with other children and I didn''t really have any problems seeing them running around or so. There were also adult only stuff to do on board which kept me entertained. You could booze it up if you wanted to, but I went on Disney cruises mainly for the shows and the food. Service was awesome and everything was great, at least when we went. There were also excursions you could do when you get on land. I for one would do a cruise again!

Btw, that''s awesome that BF''s family is treating you all to a cruise in January! Have fun!!

I''ll chime in...

DH and I got married on a cruise. It was the most wonderful experience for us because we like both the relaxation that comes with vacation with the option of activities. Check out www.cruisecritic.com - there is a ton of information there.

Hope that helps!

DH and I have been on 3 cruises, and would love to do more! A cruise with the family sounds like fun.
