I still can't believe it. I turned the calendar a page and it was right there in black and white. December. July 4th was a few days ago right?

In the travel business, it is time to start thinking about where to go this summer. Why so soon? Well, if you want to get into that exclusive, hard to get into resort this summer, you need to book early. All of the best cabins on the best summer cruises go quickly. So book now.

In the next few posts I will outline some different types of vacations to take over the Summer. So lets start with my favorite.


Cruising.

I love it. But I have not always loved it. For the longest time you could not get me on a boat. I was under the impression that they were stuffy boring places that old people go. Well was I wrong. Today's Cruise ships are floating wonders. With multiple restaurants, and more things to do than you can possibly fit into one day. Spas, kids programs, and did I mention the food. The food on a cruise ship makes eating at Thanksgiving feel like little league. Bring your eating pants, because you have never seen so much.

And the destinations. Why go to one place when your "Floating Hotel" can take you to two or three or four. Take the Caribbean for example, with so many Islands, and all having a different flavor and style, it is amazing the choices you have.

Plus nature. I do not know about you, but there is something that is calming soothing about the ocean. Just staring out and not being able to see land. You feel like your in a different world. Not to mention a cruise in Alaska, where you can see whales, or dolphins or sea lions right from the ship. And don't get me started on Glacier Bay.

Cruising is not what it was 15 years ago. So give it a whirl, you will love it.
