There are many reasons for mid
winter Caribbean cruises, not the least
Of which is romance. says Miss Ottillie
George who will be hostess aboard the
Pilsudski for it's six fiesta cruises.
Romantic? West Indies cruises are
even sentimental" says Miss George.
And why not? Holiday voyages into
the tropics are sea-going, highly
modern form of the old-fashioned
American neighborhood party.
Il don't mean to imply that only
sWeethearts make tropical cruises, but
the fact remains that the Pilsudski's
bookings ran four to eight honeymoon
pairs to a shipload last season, and I
don't know how many matches de-
veloped as an aftermath of every trip.
How does it happen to be like this2
Well, the answer is obvious to any one
who has sailed on ocean voyages, or
especially on tropical vacation trips
It's in the mood, the holiday spirit that
pervades an shipboard life. The
ships company isn't like the list of
room guests in hotel or a crowd at
some public gathering. Everything is
informal and social. Then it Is so
glorious on deck during sunny days
and starlit and moonlight nights down
in the soft, warm air of the low lati-
tudes; ones silly reserves and inhibi-
tions on the land just thaw out and
disappear by the time the ship has
entered the Gulf Stream on Tho nay
South"
II there Is less romance on long
cuises, there is compensation in more
adventure, for instance, to Rio via
