Hi Judith,

I find your posts to be so honest and refreshing, in light of all the heated discussion.

Participation in any message board forum thrives on open, candid, and even lively, heated discussion. We each have different experiences that we bring to our reports and reviews. We also have differing expectations and opinions. How great is it to be able to speak freely? It's a sad commentary when differing views are subject to negativity and deragatory rebuttals.

You are a very welcome member of LCT and I applaud you for your open-mindedness! For many of us, cruising and travel is an on-going learning experience. It's people such as yourself, Ngaire and so many others who frequent both LCT and CC that make the learning process so informative and enjoyable!
