Cruise Control-Don't Give Up The Ship

Top Cruise Destinations

While it's easy to focus on cruising because of its high profile, the fact is cruising is neither the source or cause of the virus or its spread. What is different about the cruise industry is the very stringent reporting requirements applicable to vessels that do not apply to comparable venues on land where the spread of communicable disease is just as prevalent. It would be a false assumption to connect higher frequency and visibility in reporting to a higher frequency of infection. - CLIA

Cruisers, talk to each other, and influence each other. So progress gets amplified through WOM, Word of Mouth. The more people who have ocean cruised, the more who will tell others, the more who will want to take an ocean cruise too. I am doing my part by blogging about my travels.

Honorable Mention

The Hawaiian Islands
1994 - My First Ship - A Rust Bucket - SS Constitution (a glorified ferry) with a lot of heart

2011 was a watershed year - At sea for 365 days - with a few days on land to chase a ship down in Australia and the USA.

Here are my accounts of those 364 days (more like DAZE) in 2011 - Once around without leaving the ground.

There is no doubt about it, the exhilarating state of mind that travel can evoke, when everything seems suddenly fresh, vivid, intensely interesting, and memorable.

Travelling by cruise ships - 12 ports in 14 days, is like flirting with life. It's like saying, I wanna love you, but I have to go; this is just the way it is.

That Was Zen. This is Now

It only ends once - anything before that is just progress.

Go BIG or Go HOME - The privilege of a lifetime is being who you are, once you let go of the life you have planned, so as to accept the one that is waiting for you.
