This May I had the opportunity to sail on Emerald Princess and when asked what I enjoyed the most on this particular cruise, I would have to say, EVERYTHING!
My typical day at sea started with a brisk workout and lavish breakfast while watching the ocean go by. After breakfast, with a book in hand, finding a comfortable deck chair and Jacuzzi at the Jumbo Movie area on the aft of the ship was my goal. Princess offers the unique experience of an outdoor movie theater. At night, they call it “Movies Under the Stars”.

Last summer, I took my then 6 and 9 year old boys to the little southern Swedish coastal village of Falsterbo. Falsterbo and neighboring Skanör are small old fishing villages that have turned into popular summer vacation spots for many Swedes, and have always been favorites of my children’s Swedish born “Farmor” (literally translated “fathers’ mother”).
As this was the first trip for my boys to the home country of many of their ancestors, we packed an active itinerary into our 10-day vacation. However, almost every morning, we made time for the beach! Waking in a family friends’ summer home as immaculate as every building and home in these pristine villages, the three of us would eat our Swedish porridge and then board our old-fashion rented bicycles – baskets, bells, and all – to bike 10-15 minutes to the crisp and breezy water of the Baltic Sea. -

The Cruise Web is pleased to welcome back several Cruise Consultants from another educational Seminar-at-Sea. Jacques Botty, Tina Colicchio, Jarren Matthews, and Heather Wasson represented The Cruise Web on the 7-night Western Caribbean cruise aboard the Celebrity Solstice. The cruise was a well deserved vacation for the group and we are glad to hear that they had a wonderful time, with Celebrity’s glassblowing demonstrations proving especially memorable. Tina was kind enough to provide the following post about the hot glass shows performed aboard the ship:
I have been to a few renaissance fairs in my time and I have seen live glassblowing before. A good friend of the family is an amateur glassblower herself. For me, glassblowing was “been there, seen it, done that…” But my preconceptions about the art of glassblowing shattered right then and there. I became hypnotized by what I saw. -
This month’s Current theme, “cruise cuisine,” reminds me of my first ever dining experience in a cruise line’s specialty steak house.
I was among a few guests invited to dine with one of a leading cruise line’s corporate executives for an inaugural dinner aboard a new vessel that was debuting its first steakhouse at sea. Wow — while the company was terrific, the dining experience was even better! -

The Cruise Web Assistant Sales Manager Arthur B. attended the opening day game of the Washington Nationals against the Philadelphia Phillies on Monday, April 5.
Though Arthur prefers soccer to baseball, he attended the game with his good friend Arthur and the Regional Manager for Royal Caribbean, Bob R. Although they arrived a little late, Arthur and his friend made it just in time to see President Barack Obama throw out the ceremonial first pitch of the game.
