| Add Some Fun To a Family Cruise Vacation with a Linguistic Lesson! |
To round out our Cruising with Family series, we thought we'd end with a little ship-shape vocabulary lesson. After all, every good sailor knows their port from their starboard!
Nautical Lingo
- Aft = back of the ship
- Forward = front of the ship
- Starboard = right side of the ship - if you’re facing the front.
- Port = left side of the ship - if you’re facing the front. (Tip – to remember which side is left and right, “port” has four letters, just like “left”)
- Bow = the very front of the ship
- Stern = the very back of the ship
- Ship = it is not a “boat”
- Stateroom = a cabin
We hope you've enjoyed our Cruising with Family series! What's your favorite Family Cruise Vacation memory?
