Who is this man of moose-tery who has been with the Mates of Cruise since before the beginning of time? Does his real name matter? Not to us, he has always been Kuki - it rhymes with "pookie". (If you must know, visit his profile).
Will you know him instantly whence finally you meet? Only if spotted in his native habitat, the cruise ship blackjack tables, or sitting by the pool in a tanktop. But be forewarned, as he just might be in disguise, working as your waiter, your blackjack dealer, or even your butler!
Cruise reviews can be a helpful tool for selecting your next cruise, but not all reviews are equal. Let Kuki help you separate the wheat from the chaff.

Things were complicated before security was boosted, now as a Canadian citizen, Kuki and others face early morning roll calls and other indiginities when entering U.S. ports.
It's easy! Find the pointy end of the ship and "port" is left. How do you know? look out a window. Which way is the water flowing? Face the opposite way, if the water isn't flowing, you are already in port.
There is no excuse for a bad cruise, as long as the cruise line fits your personal style. They all differ, and it is up to you to figure out which is best for you.
Cruise fares are still historically cheap, but the little extras can add up. Kuki offers advice on how to reduce your shipboard and shore-side expenses.
