GlendaleCruiser Posted August 7, 2009 #228 Share Posted August 7, 2009 And there are no drugs in the states. Yes, there are. But the last time I visited the Grand Canyon, there was not a crowd of people following me and asking me to buy them. There were at Dunn's River Falls, however. Never again: Jamaica Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donder1 Posted August 7, 2009 #231 Share Posted August 7, 2009 Have no desire to go to India for the same reasons posted earlier. Would not go back to Jamacia, Grand Cayman, Cosumel, Puerto Rico. Been there too many times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluegirlum Posted August 8, 2009 #232 Share Posted August 8, 2009 (edited) Yes, there are. But the last time I visited the Grand Canyon, there was not a crowd of people following me and asking me to buy them. There were at Dunn's River Falls, however. Never again: Jamaica Unfortunately this happened to me too in Jamaica. I would personally never go back, and if people go, I just tell them honestly what happened to me during my week there. It's very frightening and off-putting if it has never happened to you before, no matter where it happens. If it happened to you in Seattle, you'd probably never want to go back in Seattle either. I am totally with you. Edited August 8, 2009 by bluegirlum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karysa Posted August 8, 2009 Author #233 Share Posted August 8, 2009 Was just in Antarctica in February and it was colder where I came from in the US! Where's that, I will add it to my list!:eek: Karysa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SarasMommy Posted August 8, 2009 #234 Share Posted August 8, 2009 Bermuda is a country, not a port and there's plenty to keep you busy for weeks never mind 4 days. FWIW, Bermuda is NOT a country, it is a British overseas territory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sammamishcruiser Posted August 8, 2009 #235 Share Posted August 8, 2009 Our never again is Colon. Dirtiest place we've seen not to mention having an armed escort on an excursion. We will have an armed guard into Cairo and to the Pyramids of Giza. Will that stop me from going there? NO WAY!! Trip of a lifetime!:D:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjsams Posted August 8, 2009 #236 Share Posted August 8, 2009 Milwaukee is south, for heaven's sake!! You live in a balmy climate. ;-) I'd go anywhere on a cruise. Okay, excepting maybe the coast off Somalia. I just want to see the world (but I like my comforts.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruznjan Posted August 10, 2009 #237 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Bermuda is a country, not a port and there's plenty to keep you busy for weeks never mind 4 days. That's not my point. I've been to Bermuda and I know what there is to do there. I just don't want to be on a ship going nowhere for 4 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare electro Posted August 14, 2009 #241 Share Posted August 14, 2009 Going back to Europe next. I'd like to do the Greek Isles unless someone here states a case why not to. I'd like any input. Getting ready to book another cruise soon. I've really enjoyed reading your posts. You will love the greek isles. Absolutely amazing.:D I would suggest spring or fall, summer is much to hot.:eek: We were there early April and the temp was very comfortable for walking around and site seeing. And make sure you eat in some local resturaunts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karysa Posted March 2, 2015 Author #242 Share Posted March 2, 2015 (edited) Since its been over 5 years since I started this thread I wondered if anyone has gone to a place that they had crossed off of their list or perhaps you have added a place on to your list. I went somewhere cold which was surprising to me since DH vowed to never go to Alaska. :) We both enjoyed it and are glad that we went. Cartagena on the other hand didn't impress me and I have no desire to return there. Turkey would not have made my don't want to visit list a couple of years ago but as I am starting to plan for a 2017 special 25th Anniversary trip it's not looking attractive to me at least right now.

sail7seas Posted March 2, 2015 #245 Share Posted March 2, 2015 My DH always wanted to cruise Alaska and despite a huge amount of travel and cruising we did, that was one place I said NEVER. I live in Boston and (especially this year) have had more than my share of ice and snow. :eek: Nothing about Alaska interested me. One day I said to myself....... He's got rights, too. Who am I to say I wouldn't agree to go where he wants to go. So I told him I would put a smile on my face and we would go. The terms were he should book every excursion that interested him and I'd join him on some but not all. We were 'good to go' and off we went. It was one of our best cruise out of nearly 100 or so and we both absolutely loved every minutes of it. I thanked my DH time and again for getting us to Alaska. He became very ill soon after and has since passed away. I am so grateful we had that cruise.... I so often remember how happy we were to be there.... how much we enjoyed ourselves. Go..... wherever it is you want to visit. Just Go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lerin Posted March 2, 2015 #246 Share Posted March 2, 2015 I know this thread is old, but it is very interesting. While I'd like to cruise the world, I will not go anywhere that is currently listed as unsafe by the US State Department. Once countries are removed from the list, I will consider.

wwcruisers Posted March 2, 2015 #247 Share Posted March 2, 2015 (edited) Sail7Seas -- Thank you for that lovely story! Alaska cruises seem to be a place where memories are made (apologies to DisneyWorld). :o Our only Alaska cruise was nearly 10 years ago now -- and it was our one, big, "family' cruise. Not everyone is still here, but we have our memories... :) Edited March 2, 2015 by wwcruisers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greensnow Posted March 2, 2015 #248 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Yes...sail7seas. Very kind of you to share your (bittersweet) story. I've been saying the same thing to my gf for years about my desire to go to Alaska. She has no interest. I said I guess I'll go alone then....

Velvetwater Posted March 2, 2015 #249 Share Posted March 2, 2015 We would never rule out anywhere. The only places we will not cruise to again are the places we have already cruised to and even then who knows. I could never be the type of person that kept doing the same Caribbean journey twice a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OctoberKat Posted March 3, 2015 #250 Share Posted March 3, 2015 We would never rule out anywhere. The only places we will not cruise to again are the places we have already cruised to and even then who knows. I could never be the type of person that kept doing the same Caribbean journey twice a year. I confess readily to not reading the foregoing 13 pages of commentary. However my reluctance to cruise certain locales and regions has naught to do with the Caribbean which I have cruised once. Of course that was my first cruise earlier this year. We've also booked a hotel barge "cruise" on the canals of Burgundy, the Amazon on Silversea in November as well as the Norwegian Fjordes in June 2016. We are especially interested in cruising: the west coast of South America, the Canadian Maritimes, the Great Barrier Reef and Australian environs, Fiji, the Viking route, and the Med around Greece.
