Same with me...I think that's what I was trying to say.

Here's what Monica wrote on August 25th:
"Just a personal choice. We're more conservative, not into the
drinking and
partying scene and prefer a ship more suited to our tastes."
I'm definitely NOT pushing Carnival on her...just addressing her
concerns with Carnival...that as a more conservative cruiser she felt
that the drinking and partying atmosphere would be too much. My point
was that the atmosphere on a ship - any ship - can change from week to
week. Carnival can be the sleepiest of cruise lines, HAL the rowdiest.
There are lots of issues that I have with Carnival that will make me
think long and hard before booking another cruise with them, but, as a
"quiet" cruiser myself, the potential for too much of a party scene on
board is not one of the considerations I will weigh heavily.

I don't think anyone's arguing that point...are they?

Yes....we know.
