My sister (72) and brother-in-law (77) are cruisers. They go on 3 or 4 every year. Last fall was for their 25th anniversary and they were on Norwegian Prima cruising Norway and Iceland, staying in a Haven suite. That's the ship within a ship that has special upscale stuff including a butler. They had a great time until BIL got very sick and had to be taken by ambulance to a hospital in Norway. It was Influenza A. He is fully vaccinated for everything possible. The staff was very helpful in their situation and he was able to return to the ship a day later, although they missed a few ports.
They are currently on Oceania Vista in the Caribbean. This ship holds 1200 passengers which is much smaller than the ones they usually go on.
We have not cruised but I like to learn about her trip and follow her ship when she's on a cruise. So I'm familiar with the boards on Cruise Critic. Great place to read and learn.
Are any of you familiar with EmmaCruises? Emma is a 30 year old British woman who blogs and YouTubes about cruises. She started out finding the cheapest way to do it but has expanded to a wide range of prices and ships. I just love her accent and her way of explaining things. She covers lots of details like how many electrical outlets, bathroom details, etc.

DH and I should probably try a cruise sometime. My sister loves it because there are always people to talk to. I'm far less of a "people person" and I would probably hang out on my balcony and get room service.
