kellbellscruise Posted June 12, 2009 #1 Share Posted June 12, 2009 I love beach vacations during full moon. But would love to see stars galore on a ship. Its pretty built up where I live so lots of street lighting and such. Just curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its pretty built up where I live so lots of street lighting and such. Just curious. kellbellscruise, I prefer full moons when cruising. I grew up in an area with near zero light pollution so we had 'stars galore.' Clear completely dark nights are rare at sea so I prefer the full moon. The moons reflection across the water is a sight words can not describe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cathyoo Posted June 12, 2009 #3 Share Posted June 12, 2009 I was going to say I love both... However, when I thought about it starry nights remind of summer camping vacations in the mountains and how I loved the diamonds in the sky. So I guess either one make me happy but stars bring back other memories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vacruizer Posted June 12, 2009 #4 Share Posted June 12, 2009 I love both. The sight of the full moon reflecting in the water is incredible. But so is sitting on your balcony on a dark moonless night and seeing not just the stars, but a meteor shower as well. Absolutely incredible. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mek Posted June 12, 2009 #5 Share Posted June 12, 2009 I agree - both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JJWW Posted June 12, 2009 #6 Share Posted June 12, 2009 If I may add a bit of flavor to the sauce ! While observing lighting storms at sea, it's majestically beautiful ! It's a show within itself . While the Captain will comfortably direct the ship around the storm. It truly is a site to see / sea ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caribbean dreams Posted June 12, 2009 #7 Share Posted June 12, 2009 I live away from the city so i see lots of stars every night, so I prefer the glow of a full moon over the ocean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fancy_Goods Posted June 12, 2009 #8 Share Posted June 12, 2009 I've done both and was disappointed with the stars...we had an aft balcony and the ambient lights from the ship interfered with the starlight. On the otherhand, a full moon rising out of the ocean is ::sigh:: breathtaking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xokeman Posted June 12, 2009 #9 Share Posted June 12, 2009 both are wonderful.. but so many wonderful reflections can be seen on the ocean when out there .. take a camera and set long exposure and hope the boat aint moving too much! ... no need for a tripod just use the railing!

mudpievelour Posted June 12, 2009 #10 Share Posted June 12, 2009 Stars! My DH starts to "bristle" under a full moon. If he just wouldn't bay!:p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZ Karaoke Girl Posted June 12, 2009 #11 Share Posted June 12, 2009 People get crazy during full moons. Bad moods, anger comes out in some etc. Just talk to police & hospital staff and they will tell you how busy they are during full moons. I would definately choose stars. Plus, if you live in the "city" there is nothing like seeing the stars when there is no other light around. I moved out of the city into the country and I love our starry nights.
