Do you have the Powerball fever? Have you picked your numbers and bought your ticket? If you have, then you are probably already having fun planning how to spend your $500 million jackpot – just like some of us here at The Cruise Web .
Sitting at your desk, overwhelmed with work, sometimes just a quick glance at a picture of a beach can wash away the stress.

Black Friday is the day to get the best deals in America, but overseas you have an opportunity to get great bargains on authentic local products at markets and bazaars. But you have to be prepared to negotiate.
I love to find a good deal, whether I’m at home or far, far away on a vacation, I’ve always got my eye out for a bargain. If you can go toe-to-toe with a shop owner negotiating on a cherished souvenir, you not only come away with a great purchase, but a great story to tell when you get home.

It was a wonderful experience.
The Cruise Web team got in the holiday mood this past Halloween. From the familiar witch to the truly unique smurfette, our staff had some fun and funny costumes. On top of our festive coworkers we were treated to a deceptively delicious lunch provided by Regent Seven Seas Cruises.
