Apparently some people have never heard "the sea is a harsh mistress," and they think that sailing is a fun thing to do with somebody else (hopefully) worrying about the safety of a ship underway. Personally, I've been inside a small metal room with a fire hose and put out a controlled fire that was supposed to simulate a fire on a ship at sea. You know, where YOU are the fire department. I've no desire to live through the real thing, especially on a stranger's ship. Plus, I'm not a big fan of having gastroenteritis, either. Cruises for fun: you can keep 'em.
But like I said, some people are apparently shocked to realize for themselves that shipboard life is potentially more dangerous than sitting on the sofa at home. I suppose that these are the people for whom the light poles in London have been padded.
News Flash: the world is a dangerous place. Intentionally isolating yourself DAYS away from help with 4,000 other people just so you can play golf on top, eat in the cafeteria with them, and hit the same vacation spots at the same time, is a BAD idea.
