Cunard cruises vs land based holidays

[ballroom-cruisers]

It is actually quite easy to have modest portions of really good food on a voyage, and combined with all those stair climbs, and multiple circuits around the prom deck, lots of walking around ports, burning off the food intake is not too difficult!  Add in a few hours of dancing every evening and that gives a good number of aerobic exercise minutes, and it isn't too difficult to see how you might burn more than you took in! (Not that I ever count or research the details!)

 

Oh - yes D&N - I completely forgot about the cocktails in the Commodore Club, Chart Room, or anywhere else on the ship - but if you took the stairs to get there, you must be on to a good thing!

Think Dirty Dancing film, The Deerhurst, Huntsville Ontario was the nearest we’ve got to an all in North American  resort.

Great fun, especially with children.

The Grand Hotel on Mackinac Island (Michigan) still offers an almost all inclusive experience - typical rates can include breakfast and dinner, sometimes special rates throw in lunch, too. There is even a dance floor and live "orchestra" - kind of like a small Big Band.

 

You can even see the open water of Lake Huron.
