Reaching Paradise, EMBRACE Resort Staniel Cay Bahamas

January 1, 2023 by Dave3 Comments

Cruising Alaska’s Inside Passage with Holland America

July 1, 2022 by Dave2 Comments

One of the great things about cruising is leaving the logistics to others. Certain destinations are ideally suited to cruises including Alaska, due to its vast geographical distances, remote landscapes and rugged coastal beauty. Our Alaskan Inside Passage cruise was on the Holland America Eurodam, a ship whose inaugural sail was in 2008. We first cruised on this particular ship in 2015 in the Caribbean.
