New Orleans at Mardi Gras....though the streets are crowded, the difficulty in getting around is overstated, and besides why do you really need to move much when there is so much to entertain right in front of you.

Indonesia. Best Month of my life spent there. I also loved Costa Rica enough to buy a piece of property around Tamarindo.

My wife and I have taken to cruises, and other than spending a few days in Las Vegas or New York that is the way we like to spend vacations.

Been to both islands and I like Maui better. Depends on what your looking for. Spending time on both would be best but I would spend more time at Maui. I have a list of where to eat while in Maui. Food is always a must, lol.

The ships are so big now and have built in stabilizers so you would hardly notice the movement. We got some wristbands that use a pressure point on your wrist to fight being sea-sick, and we ended up never having to use them. Seems to be a thing of the past.
