1. What Cruise or Cruises have you taken?

Name: Cheryl Debenham
P&O CRUISES

2. What was the most important reason that you decided to try out cruising?
I loved the motion of the ocean. I always wanted to work on ships, but I married and had children.

3. What are the other motives you had for cruising? And what is your reason for booking a cruise?
Her dying father had told her she should follow her passion, and spend time at sea. "So I booked a
cruise for the first anniversary of his death on the Pacific Jewel. When I walked on board, it was like
coming home. My dad's name was Charlie, and there was a bar called 'Charlie's Bar'. I took it as a
sign."

4. Were you reluctant in taking a cruise? What cause this reluctant? And did the actual cruise
change your mind?
I never felt so reluctant about cruising although it’s normal to be reluctant sometimes, but cruising
is different. It is an experience that everyone should take a chance with.

5. Now that you have tried cruising, what is the best thing about it?
 The buffet – So many food options, so much eating. The ship had everything I could have
ever desired, including a great salad bar. I think I ate healthier that week on the cruise than I
have in months.
 The friendly staff – The members of the staff on the boat were utterly amazing. The
bartenders at the Schooner bar were hilarious; our room attendant was friendly and
helpful, and put up with my million requests. But the real prize goes to our dining room
attendants, who were some of the best servers I’ve had in recent memory.
 The comfy beds – I didn’t expect much from the boat’s accommodation, but I was
pleasantly surprised at how well I slept. The bed featured one of those foam mattresses,
and I rarely wanted to get up.

6. Do you plan to take another cruise? If “yes” what kind of cruise will it be? If “no” why?
Yes, I want to experience cruising again and this time with my children. Probably we will try Royal
Princess Cruises
