They don't currently fit into our schedule as we can only travel during school holidays (aka peak season). My only worry is that I am prone to seasickness and wonder if the days on the open sea are rockier than those close to land.Michele {Malaysian Meanders}https://www.blogger.com/profile/18313351463568423694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7011248318265372337.post-76119523573162752622015-09-28T16:41:13.502-07:002015-09-28T16:41:13.502-07:00Oh Eileen, as always, thanks so much for leaving a...Oh Eileen, as always, thanks so much for leaving a comment.

BUT, when I finally got a chance tonight, after a very gruelling week, I felt completely relaxed in all the wonderful packages you describe so well, and in detail. There are many things to consider, but what an amazing idea these repositioning cruises are - everybody wins! Personally, not sailing for days, even if it is very smooth sailing, with no land in sight, sounds a little agoraphobic to me, so I'll take the shorter ones, thank you!<br /><br />Happy Sunday, you two!<br /><br />Hugs,<br />PoppyPoppyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08980323586402386609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7011248318265372337.post-80741432941300336922015-09-26T09:24:53.773-07:002015-09-26T09:24:53.773-07:00Great info!
