u r not literarily on a boat on an extended time, yes, u r travelling on a boat, a five star hotel, where ur bed is made two times a day, all ur meals including five course dinners r paid for, u dont have to lug around suitcases hopping from airport to airport, and u arrive each morning at a new island....
on the boat, there r so many activities, the paul gaugin has a sports deck that opens to the sea level, we went kayaking on the lagoons of borabora, moorea... heavenly!

hmmm, just thinking of it now makes me want to go back on the cruise to tahiti...
