Normal
Sounds like lots of fun Really, though. I have lots of time to plan for a summer '05 Alaskan cruise, but the seasick thing is something that I'll have to confront eventually. I have never experienced motion sickness at any time. Also, I hate being medicated. I undersand that the medication for seasickness (dramamine?) can have you pretty groggy. I've also heard that it doesn't do any good if you wait until you get sick to start the meds (wive's tale?). So, my questions are:1. Given my apparent tolerance to motion sickness, should I take my chances?2. Should I take the meds just in case?3. Should I keep the meds handy and take them if we encounter rough seas?Maybe some of you who have experienced it both ways can advise me, especially if you, like me, aren't susceptable to motion sickness.
