which would you choose

[merciasounds]

late September, a fortnight in the Caribbean on a luxury yacht, BUT doing all the cooking for crew and another couple on board - or Christmas / New Year in New York in a decent hotel

[Mick-Talbot]

have you got this choice mercia?

[mazie]

Why can't you have both of them?

[mccfluff]

carib

[merciasounds]

Because I don't want to leave my doggies twice!! yes, this is my choice

[rowanwitch]

Definitely the yacht the sea and the cooking.... love cooking anyway couldn't think of anywhere worse than new york especially at a time when everyone was pretending to enjoy themselves.....

[237SJ]

Definitely the yacht

[mazie]

If you're doing all the cooking it's not going to be much of a break for you mercia

[Greedyfly]

New York every time, But I have never been and I know I will love it there so I am biased.

Actually I have never been on holiday...

[rowanwitch]

Do you need an assistant mercia....?

[Mick-Talbot]

if there is only another couple on board then you won't be cooking for that many.
take the caribbean option. Take loads ready break, and pot noodles SORTED!

Spent a couple of weeks on a yacht in the Virgin Islands about 10 years ago and the girl who was the galley girl managed really well to do the food but there was plenty of time for her to enjoy the sailing and evening thingies as well

[Bbbananas]

Being a yachtie (and galley slave) myself - it would have to be the Caribbean. You can't spend all your time cooking....

If you can avoid the Hurricanes I would choose the Yacht in the Caribbean. Hurricane season runs from June-Nov ! Have a good time mercia !!

[funnygirl]

But then again, it is snowing in New York at xmas time!

[merciasounds]

Quite frankly, the cooking doesn't bother me, it's the heat. I know being on the sea it'll be cooler, but I can't stand the sun. and New York, well...been there, done that, I'd rather stay at home, but then it sounds like I'm being miserable!

[Bbbananas]

Let me go on the yacht in your place then Mercia - I can cook, I can crew, I can do a mean cocktail, I can sail & navigate. (However, I don't do the cleaning.....)

[mccfluff]

tell you what ms i'll go instead, it will be hard but i'd do that for you...

[McMouse]

Caribbean every time, but would take the cook with me.

[redman41]

We only live once mercia, go for it, no good living to regret it later. Put your sea legs on and cover up in the Sun.......

[Greedyfly]

I hate the heat also. Would love to do New York in the snow and see all the Christmas windows, although I am sure the cold won't do my ankle any good lol
