Thanks for the great responses. The cruise was for the most part, rough. Our sea-sickness abated somewhat. Yes, eating helped, even though the dining room food was a disappointment even to seasoned cruisers. But we adjusted to the "surf," eventually tapering off meclazine as it made us sleepy. It rained a lot, in the Caribbean, and at sea, even though everybody told us it was the dry season. The sea was rough to varrying extents most of the time. There were a few calm times. The pool had a huge surf, sloshing way out onto deck. One couple said they slept sideways in the bed! The captain referred to everything as "moderate" seas. But, it was still very fun. The joke became that the only people walking normally were the drunk ones!

Thanks. It is supposed to be better tonight. It didn't sound right to hear "it's always like this." Viva la Antivert!

This is pretty miserable. Left Friday on Celebrity for St Thomas (first stop.) People told us we would not be able to tell the boat was moving. For more than two days, the Equinox has pitched and rolled for the entire time since shortly after leaving port. Seasoned cruisers have said they have never seen this before. The drapes swing. My kit hanging on door swings pendulum-like. We hear creaking sounds of ship. My husb has vestibular issues so he expected problems. We brought 3 meds. But I have issues also (have meds.) Guest Services says "it is always like this from Florida to St Thomas." Is that true? This is not much fun.
