For a weekend, why not? At the very least, you get some time on the beach. From the one time I've been on a cruise, it did seem like it was difficult to get alone time, but I usually found that, if I sat by the pool with sunglasses and a book, people would leave me alone. (The sunglasses are important -- otherwise, people keep trying to make conversation whenever you glance up from the book.) And if they've got the usual cruise activities, there will be a lot of trivia sessions, which are always fun.
Zoe: Planet's coming up a mite fast. Wash: That's just cause, I'm going down too quick. Likely crash and kill us all. Mal: Well, that happens, let me know.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Miami to the Bahamas should be a relatively iceberg free-zone. But with global warming, who can say?
Sharks and hurricanes, that's the problem, right?

I was ALL OVER cruise trivia.

Icebergs sneak up on you. Hurricanes at least give you warning.
Sharks are problematic.

They don't let sharks on the boat, though, so stay on board, and you're shark-free!

Stay out of deep water, and you won't really have to worry about sharks. (Yes, sometimes they come to shallow water, but I choose to ignore this.) Hurricanes are easy enough to spot on radar that they shouldn't be a problem on a ship -- no one is going to bring a ship full of paying passengers into a hurricane. (At least, I'd hope not.)

My reasoning is that people who can pay for a cruise are people who have family members who can pay for a lawyer, and the cruise lines know that.
