This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

I'd recommend ferries - not cruises by DakotaDomer
We used ferries to see Croatia and have now gone on 2 Carribbean cruises. I don't think I'd ever want to use a cruise to see cities I was actually excited to explore.
Ferries will get you closer to where you want to be on the islands and you won't have to wait in the long shuttle lines back and forth. It would also provide flexibility if you'd like to spend more time in one place or see something outside of a cruise group.
You'd certainly have to do a lot more planning on your own and paperwork than just paying a cruise line to do it all for you. So it might depend on if you think the planning of a vacation is a big part of the joy of a vacation.
