Athens

Monemvasia

Gythion

Messina (Taormina)

Sorrento

Ponza

Rome

Portoferraio

Bastia

Calvi

Mahon

Palma de Mallorca

Barcelona

Thx all..love the “washing machine pic..;)” I’ve been through a few of those on boats.

on a coin flip,we decided on the A level..seemed like it might be nice to have our room 1 deck away from the main decks and maybe better view.  

Im an avid boater and live part of the year aboard..so not concerned with sea motion.

this is our first voyage on a “cruise line” x a river cruise on Avalon (fantastic). I’ve always dreaded the idea of the 2-3,000+ passenger ships so we’re really excited about the Windstar..sort of been on my bucket list for a while.

thx again for the thoughts on room/deck level. I think in the end my thought came down to that I’d hate to lay out x$ and find out I’d have enjoyed the trip more if I’d spent x +10%..which is about how the #s worked out.

We’re considering a cruise on Wind Star

the A or upper rooms are priced higher by about 1,000

do you think it’s worth paying up? Pluses or minuses between 2?

thx
