1st American River Cruise: What to Expect?

[LHT28]

We are looking at a river cruise. So is the "hot tub" a warm thing or like pool water? How deep?

 

It is a small pool about maybe 2 ft deep by the looks of it

We did not use it so cannot say how warm it was

 

It would be good for cooling off on a hot day

Thanks. The river cruises seem so expensive so we are just checking it out right now.

I was on the Aug. 15th cruise from Cincinnati to St. Louis. Luckily, the 24-hour popcorn machine has not disappeared from the Front Porch. The ice cream and soda machines are open too.

 

I found it a very relaxing cruise, and spent a lot of my time reading in the rocking chairs. One thing I do think they need is a Scrabble set, and I suggested it to the entertainment director. Also more light in the Gentlemen's Card Room so I don't need my flashlight to put together a puzzle! :D

You may want to read my blog posts, so you can see photos and learn some tips about the boat: www.ElaineiaKsTravels.wordpress.com

And, check out my photos at: www.ExquisiteCards.Fototime.com . There are more photos there than what appear on the blog.

I agree about the cookies; definitely budget calories for some of those!
