Cruising is getting better and better, yet I can relate to your fustration. Kids are still on cruises, but there are more and more kid only areas then there use to be. I just got back from a 6 day cruise and the adult only area was welcoming. Yes, I got turned around and lost a few times too, but Staff and other guess is very friendly, and more then willing to help you get to the area you want to go, On my very first cruise I would just walk each floor, take that beautiful glass elevator, get on, get off, then take the stairs. I got lost, turned around, but so was alot of the other people I kept running into. I've met and kept in touch with many people on cruises, some locally, and other I just send Christmas cards, emails, or a call once in awhile. So, give cruising another try, and now cruises also have certain themes, like Singles, 15 day or longer cruises, which would attract mature/ retired groups, and other themes. I sure hope this was helpful!!
