[QUOTE]Originally posted by yukon11: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by smitty195: [qb] Oops, one more thing: I would definitely prefer a modern ship. I don't want "an old classic". Just like with hotels----some people prefer the old, fancy, 1850's types of hotels with the "charming" broiler to heat the rooms or whatever. I find NONE of that stuff charming. I like modern, new, fancy, hi-tech, etc…..Thanks! [/qb][/QUOTE]************************ Most of the time, Smitty, I will agree with you. The older, 1800's vintage hotels have frequently disappointed. A number of years ago, while staying in Glenwood Springs, CO, I stayed at the Hotel Colorado, a 1893 hotel which, at least from the outside, looked interesting. However, the rooms were dusty and dirty, cracks in the ceiling, old radiator heating, etc,..it was a terrible hotel. Hopefully, they have renovated it. However, if you ever take the Durango-Silverton train and stay in Durango, I can recommend the Strater Hotel, dating back to 1887: http://www.strater.com/index.cfm/reservations/ Very nice rooms, reasonable prices, good food, and a lot of fun. Especially the "Diamond Belle Saloon". Richard [/QB][/QUOTE]
