I have to agree about the children, especially in places that are more adult, and not really appropriate for children.

I do have a good experience with children. Last fall I was on a cruise, and the large table next to us had about 6 young children and 3 adults. The table on the other side had a baby about a year old. I was worried about this, but by the second night I forgot that they were even there. The table with 6 children, the children were so well behaved, and the adults kept them entertained by interacting with them. The baby at the other table, was just a doll, so happy and cute, when she started to get restless one parent would take her out of the dining room to run around in the lobby area, and she was fine.

It also annoys me when the waitperson interrupts a conversation more than once to ask if we like our food, we recently had one ask 3 times. I don't mind the first time, just keep an eye on our glasses , keep them full and you will be tipped generously!
