To Cruise, Or Not To Cruise? That is the question…part 3

Feb 17, 2009

How Can I Stay in Touch with the rest of the world?
The first question is…do you really want to? How about a break from the news on the economy, war in Iraq and steriods in baseball? Isn’t that what vacations are all about–taking a break?

Ok….old habits die hard, so if you must:

On most ships you’ll get CNN or some other cable news network on your in-room TV. A daily news sheet may also be available that combines wire reports with stories from major newspapers. You can make & receive phone calls from the phone in your cabin (though it’s prohibitively expensive) and calls & texts from your cell phone as well. Most ships have some kind of e-mail capability from internet cafes to wifi accessability.

Staying in touch is easy…but so is staying away, if that’s what you ultimately choose to do. That’s the beauty of cruising!
