Cruise ship diverted to Bahamas port after fire

3. I think what you said IS the allure of a cruise ship

First off I have never been on a cruise. I live in South Florida 8 miles from the ocean. I really don't need any more tropical weather that I already get and I'm not much of an ocean person anyway.

I think the somewhat turnkey food and entertainment 24 hours per day appeal to many. I also think the tropical weather appeals to many. Stopping for a few hours at the ports to hang out in tourist areas sounds awful to me but let's face it, many people like this kind of simple stuff.

For me, no allure. But hey, I'm not like most people I guess (and neither are you it seems.)
