I can't exactly speak to my plan. I have been on only one cruise before, but when we travel and stay in hotels, we always have a bottle of wine on hand. Sometimes, we don't finish it but it isn't like we can just run out and get one while on a ship. On our first and only cruise, we spent a lot of time after dinner in the casino and walking the ship .We also hung out on our balcony quite a lot. Everyone has different ideas of what they enjoy when traveling. Frankly, we don't go for the shows that cruises offer. They seem hokey to us, so we do more of the other things like wine tasting, gym, trivia, etc. To each his/her own!
