HELP! I can't make a decision here.
At first I was going to wait until next year and rebook, but I've decided I just can't be cruiseless this year. I'm thinking of Oosterdam 10/18 or Ryndam 10/12. Sea of Cortez is longer and not much more expensive. BUT, I have a pretty fixed budget. Either a 7 day at a higher cat room or 10 days at a lower cat room. I've been on only the Vistas and can't compare, are the smaller ships nicer? I've heard Ryndam is aging. I've entertained the idea of trying Princess or RCL but I love HAL's beds and afraid nobody else could measure up at the non-suite level. I'm also traveling alone so whatever line/ship has a friendlier crowd would be best. Thanks.
