Cruising: cool or what?

The excellent Gadling blog recently popped-up an item about cruising, prompted by an article in the New York Times. Caught my eye as I have recently been on just such a cruise, and was surprised to find that it was, like, fun. And, at a stretch, kinda cool. I had expected grannies, blue-rinse and bingo, but found the ship was a great place to be with plenty of other 30-somethings all having a great time. Plenty to do, plenty to not-do if you prefer, and never a dull moment. My opinions were completely changed. Not sure if that ever means we're going to see a 'Cruising In Your Pocket' - but hey, why not?
