Going on one next year. My folks have just been on royal Caribbean. My mate is hotel director. He spoilt them rotten. They’ve been cruising for 15 years mom twice a year. Said it was the best they’ve ever been on.

Done these the past 3 years. Exceptional. Lots of restaurants, including outside the resort, and everything is included, all food, all booze, mini bar, none of that “local drinks” ****.

I like the idea .but not the 1000s of people all going same place same time.
The actual ship bit appeals.
Well, he was a fat ****, whoever he was. Obviously been practicing what he preached.
Never a truer word said lad.
Was having this discussion with chief and another mate on group chat earlier.
I was in Maspalomas last Oct. Nice enough, managed to get some surf in too. I'd recommend exploring the interior of the Island, there are some great little villages up in the mountains and some cheap local buses that will take you up there for a few Euros
Half of the lazy ****s don’t get off. Didn’t book any of the cruise excursions, just got off went to the port car park and did a deal with the local cabbies for a day rate. Got to see all kinds and go to more ‘local’type bars and restaurants. Thought I’d ****ed up in Roatan which is off the coast of Honduras, bloke said he’d take us to a mate who had a boat and we could go through their Everglades. Went through rain forest to the middle of nowhere, a few proper shady looking geezers were waiting, but it was ****ing sound

That sounds a better idea
I did an all inclusive to Gran Canaria last Oct, it was paid for by my mother-in-law and it was a family holiday for the kids etc. They had a great time frolicking around by the pool etc. But **** me, more than a week of that **** would get dull. The first couple of days of free beer and food whenever you want is a novelty, but after that it's just encouragement to over indulge and make a ****ing pig of yourself.
My travels in the past have been way more off the beaten track. Plane ticket to Caracas and then try and find a hotel in the cheapest part of town, before speaking to some locals who'll take you into the Jungle to find some psychedelics. Since I've had kids, I don't take the same risks, but I've taken the little one up into the back country in Yosemite and out into Bear and Wolf country in Canada earlier this year.
The idea of sitting around a pool reading a book bores me to tears.

Us Pikeys use a mixture of beach shingle and cheap black paint. A couple driveways later and you've got yourself a plane ticket.
You can be halfway to Hawaii before the customer realises
