Well it’s been a fun crossing! Lots of terrific shows. A cappella group. A tribute singer to Celine Dion Our cabin steward has been the best! Supplying me with two buckets of ice daily for my foot and some animal art! A bit disappointing, however, is Royal Caribbean no longer has lobster night unless youContinue reading “After 7 Days”

This past Monday, I went for my usual 3 mile walk in the morning but by the time I reached home, I could barely step on my left foot. I iced it and rested all day and Tuesday I went to a podiatrist who x-rayed it and gave me a shot. I have a boneContinue reading “A New Adventure – crossing the Atlantic to Israel”

We arrived in Bonaire at 7am and I was awake enough to watch the sun rise. It was early for me and coffee wasn’t going to arrive until 7:30 so I took a little snooze. After a little coffee we headed off the ship to catch a taxi to a snorkel beach. Unfortunately the shipsContinue reading “Lovely Bonaire”

We arrived In Curaçao early this morning, with a departure time of 9:30 tonight. So no need to rush. We enjoyed breakfast in the Oceanview Buffet, especially since they changed the protocol from staff serving to self service. This meant it wasn’t a madhouse with crazy long lines. From our balcony, we could see theContinue reading “Out and About In Curaçao”

We had a couple of sea days. Eating, watching shows and eating more! Coffee with friends and a trip to the gym. We were in Aruba many years ago. In fact, it’s where we went to catch a ship in what we have often labeled the honeymoon from Hell. That’s almost 30 years ago. ThisContinue reading “On a submarine in Aruba”

Life sure is tough. After a few weeks of campaigning for Circle Director in my HOA, I’m finally ready to relax and enjoy a few days. I also had a bad case of shingles from my butt to my ankle which didn’t help my mood much. Our friends came from New York and spent theContinue reading “Life is Tough – Off on Another Cruise”

We have been to many Caribbean islands but never to St. Martin. We have heard many wonderful things about it so we decided to take a bus tour that covered both the Dutch and French sides. Our ship landed on the Dutch side and we were anchored next to a very large Royal Caribbean ship.Continue reading “Our Time in St. Martin”

We have three ports on this cruise and St. Thomas was our second. I’m not a big fan but I scheduled a sail and snorkel trip. We arrived in St. Thomas at 12:30 so the morning was pretty relaxing. I had a spa treatment on my legs. This was to help the swelling in myContinue reading “A Day in St. Thomas For Sailing and Snorkeling”

Today is my birthday and we woke to a beautiful view. We arrived in Nassau at 7 am and we began our excursion at 8:30. We met our guide just off the ship. Our first stop was a rum factory. It wasn’t really a factory but a store selling rum cakes. Of course, Bruce andContinue reading “Our time in Nassau”

It’s just a quick 7 day Carribean cruise that Celebrity offered for port taxes and of course gratuities. We are sailing on the Reflection which brings fond memories of our first Transatlantic crossing. The ship is a little older but it has a lot of class. I love how it’s decorated for Christmas, very elegant.Continue reading “Out To Sea Again”
