I always enjoy Princess Cruise Line ports of call. I went on one of their Alaskan voyages and the ports were amazing. We stopped in British Columbia at Vancouver and Victoria. I stopped in at the Blue Water Café in Vancouver and loved their food. I also rode the SkyTrain which was incredible.
The Princess Cruise Line ports of call for my Alaska trip were all so enjoyable. I think that Alaska is the most beautiful state I’ve visited. When we were docked in Kodiak, I ate at a marvelous place called Second Floor Restaurant. I have never had such wonderful sushi and tempura in my whole life.
The scenic cruising that the Princess Cruise Line did in Prince William Sound was just amazing. Prince William Sound is home to orcas, Beluga whales and dolphins. The Chugach National Forest surrounds Prince William Sound and is the largest forest in the United States. The forest is 5.5 million acres.
I had a great time when one of my Princess Cruise Line ports of call was Seattle. I have always loved Seattle. I made sure that I was able to stop by Dahlia’s for dessert. They make the best desserts. The one that I ordered the last time I was there was the doughnut, made to order with seasonal jam and mascarpone. It was fabulous.
When I took my Australian voyage, the Princess Cruise Line ports of call were so much fun. My ship stopped in Honolulu and Osaka. I was overwhelmed by the beauty of Hawaii and the lushness of Osaka. I think that the Australian trip I took with Princess Cruise Line was by far my favorite.
My next Princess Cruise Line trip will include a stop in Cape Town, South Africa. I can hardly wait. I have a colleague that spent a lot of time in Cape Town and has recommended to me to eat at Ons Huisie. I will certainly take his recommendation.
My next trip will also include in its Princess Cruise Line ports of call Beijing, China. I hope to walk on the great wall. I have already started planning my trip to the last detail and I am about to bust waiting for four more months to go by.
Holiday cruises on Norwegian Cruise Line are fantastic. I cannot think of a more marvelous way to spend my holidays. Last year, my husband and I took a fourteen day cruise to South America.
Our Norwegian Cruise Line trip took us to the Chilean Fjords and the historic Strait of Magellan. I will never forget that cruise. We sailed from Santiago, Chile to Buenos Aires, Argentina. Along the way, we discovered ports like Punta Arenas, the Falkland Islands, and Montevideo. While we were at sea, we saw wildlife like elephant seals and penguins and saw glaciers and even the snow-capped peaks of the Andean Mountains.
Five years ago, we took our first holiday cruise. We decided that we would take the Norwegian Cruise Line trip to the Mexican Riviera. We sailed roundtrip from Los Angeles and explored the Gold Coast of Mexico. That trip was 8 days long and we sailed on the Norwegian Star. We danced all night in Acapulco and explored the fishing villages of Zihuatanejo. I was even able to swim with the dolphins in Ixtapa. My husband toured a tequila factory in Puerto Vallarta.
The year after we went to the Mexican Riviera, we took a holiday cruise to Hawaii. The eight day trip had been great, but we wanted a little bit more vacation, so we opted for the eleven day Norwegian Cruise Line trip to Honolulu. We ended up cruising Hawaii’s four main islands and spent a lot of time sightseeing.
Several people have asked us throughout the years why we choose to travel and take Norwegian Cruise Line trips instead of staying home for Christmas. My answer is simple. I love Christmas, but since my husband and I never had children, it seemed a little less magical at home.
The magic of a Norwegian Cruise Line trip for Christmas is in the details. They offer a fully decorated ship replete with ribbons, wreaths and sparkling trees. The menu is traditional and delicious and there is lot of caroling. I don’t sit on his knee, but I get to see Santa every year and if our cruise extends to New Year’s Eve, there is always a great party.
I like Norwegian Cruise Line trips so much that I have made it a promise to myself to take one every year. I plan for and save for it all year long. These cruises have helped my husband and I maintain our close, loving relationship and have added much needed magic into our Christmases.
