Lots of people like to lay by the pool. We have a pool at home so that holds no attraction for us.
I do love to just meander and relax. Just pure relax.

Gee, I needed to choose two. I sit by the pool and read a book. If I get too hot, I go in the pool. Sometimes, I go sit in the hot tub. I just love having peace and quiet while most people have left the ship.

DC10....I agree and that's what caught my eye in the first place. Mind you I have not been on a ton of cruises, but have travelled a ton and just can't imagine not getting on shore and exploring...but that's me....I can understand wanting to have the ship to yourself, so to speak, for a little while.

I usually explore the ship if I haven't allready.

otherwise it sit on deck and read a book if I have a balcony relax there and read a book but where ever I sit and read I have a drink to enjoy that I don't get back home.

Same as you and Tim -- we always end up going ashore even if it's to just walk around town no matter how many times we've been to a port ... even on a rainy chilly day in Nassau in January as our last stop on a longer cruise!

There should have been an "all of the above". When we stay aboard ship, we meander around and do several activities!!!

I like to sit by the pool, drink beer and read. Except on RCI where thay never came by to ask if I wanted another drink.
