Ok, this news bite comes to you from www.smartertravel.com for credit purposes.  Now read the article and decide what kind of person you are.  Do you sink your money into a fast paced adventure ride in a Grand Prix simulator, or sink your money into a super luxury spa room where you are pampered.  For me, easy choice, pamper me please :) Costa: Race-car driving simulator and Spa Sanctuary cabins The Costa Concordia debuted this spring with innovations to please both genders. While anyone can take advantage of any onboard amenity, guys are flocking to the Grand Prix race-c...

Photo Photo Photo - Check out Myspace! People always ask me... ok, to be truthful no one asks me this, but if you were wondering, all the pictures (minus the background and the overhead on the left) that are on the site and in my pics page were taken by us.  We have a Nikon D50 that we love to snap pictures with.  My husband went to college to be an art teacher, and is always leaning over rails and squatting down to get that perfect shot.  Mine tend to be more boring, but there ends up being a gem in there.  Th...

Yea, I get asked if food is included in the cost of the cruise. My answer is yes, and I follow it up with this story: The last cruise we took we got put at a large table and only one other couple showed up, so we had plenty of elbow room. Every time the menu would come, EVERYTHING on the menu looked good, no joke. It was like curried lamb, chilled pear soup, fillet mignon, lobster, baked rosemary chicken in some exotic sauce, baked Alaska, everything. We usually just ordered 2-3 of each catagory and shared. On the last night of the cruise the menu was too hard to resist, and the wai...

Gotta hand it to the home office, way to go.

These are fully accredited classes that feature world class speakers on a variety of medical and medical-legal topics. This would appeal to doctors, nurses, medical lawyers, and other healthcare professionals. Just one more dimenti...

Just popping in to say I hope you had a nice weekend!  We were busy working on the house this weekend, boooo.  Wish I was on a cruise :)  We are going on the Liberty of the Seas in May, but it seems so far away.  Have a relaxing week, and if you are thinking about taking a cruise yourself give us a call!

Okay, so boats may not be your thing... you may not like the concept of cruising, you are afraid of water, whatever the reason. You like the all inclusive nature of a cruise though. So what to do? One word, SANDALS! We book cruises at Cruise Planners, but did you know we also do all inclusives like Sandals? We spend 7 absolutly awsome days at Sandals in St. Lucia and let me tell you, it was a treat. Everything is included: all of your meals and all of your top shelf liquor including tips. You like the champagne they serve you as you are seated by the staff in the lobby upon your a...

We posted some more pics up on Picasa including the Airshow and the Grand Prix of St. Pete. We setup a little take one box, and talked up cruises to people we met! It was a blast.
