My wife and I took a Chandris cruise from Philadelphia to Bermuda October 1991. I'm not sure which ship it was and wandered if anyone else remembers that fateful cruise. It was our first cruise and we started out ok but when we got out to sea, there were a couple storms that the captain kept trying to get around. It turned out that those storms came together further North and became the "Perfect Storm". We paid extra for a porthole and all we could see for a couple days were the high seas. The dining room tables kept losing their settings as the ship rocked. My wife was playing a slot machine and one of the other tables slid up against her while she was playing. Might have been the Roulette or Craps table. She said if she was going to get stuck I should get her some more quarters so she could keep playing because there was nothing else she could do. We have since cruised twice more and are getting ready for out third. No more excitement like the first one. We figure that our 'perfect storm' cruise was pretty much as bad as it could get so why not keep cruising. ;)
