On the Go: Belize, Mexico and Key West Cruise

Sometimes it feels like all we do in life is go from one place to another. We go to work. We go to school. We go down to the local bar to forget about work and/or school. Go, go, go….when is there ever time to sit in a chair and watch the world pass us by? Almost never.

We even choose to be on the go while on vacation. Whether it is a road trip or a backpacking trip or an around the world adventure, we are a ... [Read this entry]

Labadie has the distinctive charm of delivering in just one place some ... [Read this entry]

It can be all Greek to you on this 7-night Isles cruise

Greece is a very proud and patriotic country, as well it should be. Greek history is long and storied. It is little wonder that the country’s modern national anthem has no less than 158 verses. It might take you a full millennium just to sing them all.

Fortunately you will not be asked to sing it on Royal Caribbean’s 7-night cruise of the Greek Isles. You might be persuaded to do some karaoke, but that is par for the course on a cruise. This is a cruise that ... [Read this entry]

In my next lifetime I am going to be a seabird. I am going to spend my waking hours flying high above the warm ocean waters looking for food and enjoying the solitude.

I will make up for all of the hours I spend in my current life sitting at a desk and interfacing with a computer. I ... [Read this entry]

A Tale of Two Cities: Miami to London Cruise

On the surface you would be hard pressed to find similarities between Miami, Florida and London, England. One is modern sleek, the other is old Europe sheik. One is filled with sunny day after sunny day, the other sees more than enough of its gloomy gray days. One is located on the ocean, the other is located on a river. One is a city of cars, the other is a city of double deck buses and the tube.

On the surface Miami and London might not share a ... [Read this entry]
