Celebrity Solstice

About the same time that Royal Caribbean brought us the wonders of the Oasis and Allure of the Seas, Celebrity was working on a special  ship of their own.  Their newest class of ship is call the Solstice Class.  This includes the Solstice, Equinox, Eclipse, Silhouette and Reflection.  Each is a better version of the [...]

A long time coming – the Allure of the Seas

I just realized something shocking to myself.  I have been writing this blog for a long time.  Almost a whole year!  And I have managed to never write about one of my favorite travel experiences of all time.  Cruising.  This week is going to be all about the ships I have travelled on.  Each is [...]

Azamara Knows Customer Service!

Better late than never.  One of my co-workers emailed this blog to me while I was out of the office.  As I am a HUGE advocate for customer service, I had to share this with you. This post is from the blog This Is My Yacht by Eric Goldring.  He posted this on April 3rd [...]

What Dreams Are Made Of – Antarctica

This morning I woke up and the very first thing in my email box was a letter of excitement.  I am not going to lie, once in a while I realize that a lot of people in the travel industry are jaded (been there… done that).  Things don’t excite us as easily as perhaps they [...]

Rhine River – Discover the beauty

Yesterday I talked about River Cruising.  One of my favorite rivers to talk about is the Rhine river.  This is actually where some of my favorite Reislings come from so I am biased In a funny coincidence I got an email this morning about the Rhine river!  Here are two exerpts: “The Rhine Valley is [...]

Why Rivercruise?

I love cruising.  Being on the ocean has always been one of my favorite things (well…except that I get sea-sick a lot!).  But as with everything, there are positives and negatives.  One of the negatives is that the ships can go around the border of the country, but there is no way to take a [...]

Spotlight Saturday – Juneau, Alaska

Almost every cruise that sails Alaska goes to Juneau.  It was my first port of call when I travelled to Alaska in 2007.  Seriously fantastic!  Ok it’s a port town off a cruise ship, so yes… the whole town is like 3 streets of shopping.  They have the usual suspects that you’ll find in the [...]

In 1492 Columbus Sailed the Ocean Blue!

For 5 grueling weeks he sailed with the Nina, Pinta and Santa Maria from Spain to the Americas.  Luckily for us, technology has changed the world and we can follow in his famous footsteps in 1/3 of the time!  Conditions on the ships are a little better (indoor plumbing, electricity, you know… the little things [...]

A Walled City Won My Heart!

A couple of years ago I was fortunate enough to be on a very awesome cruise to the Northern Europe region.  I was invited on a Regent Seven Seas cruise from Stockholm to Copenhagen.  On this cruise we went to a port named Visby.  My first reaction was “What the heck is Visby?”  I quickly [...]
