Travel Part 2 - Where ya headed?

Re: Travel Part 2 - Where ya headed?

Booked a couple cruises for next January before we got off this cruise. One out of San Juan to the southern Caribbean (St. Thomas, St Kitts, Curaçao and Aruba), followed shortly after by a short one from Tampa to Key West and Cozumel.

When?

Right now, we have 3 cruises booked sailing out of San Juan- one Adventure in June, Jewel in Nov, and Jewel in Feb '18.

Although, all of those are for eastern Carib.

And base on the itinerary- it's Royal Caribbean, right? The recent cruise likely the Allure, Oasis, or Harmony.

We cruise a LOT, and try to do one at every chance- including Frozen Fours...

Indeed, Allure last week. We sailed on the Independence last Feb to Falmouth and Labadee. Next Jan (20th from San Juan) is Adventure and Brilliance (29th from Tampa).

I just wanted to point out that now is a great time, if you like hiking, to go down to the desert Southwest. Not too hot, not too cold, no bugs, no tourists, good views.
all in all, perfect. I just got back and can't wait to go again.

part 2. We are heading down to Peru. Has anyone been to Puno, and if so how was it. I have a spare 3 days and I have to choose between Puno and Lima.

Yep, but I wasn't there.

That's a long hike.

That's a long hike.

And all that up and down doubles the distance.

Heading to Naples FL and then Captiva Island for a couple of days. Most of Florida may be God's waiting room, but Naples is like a Viagra commercial. Lots going on, great restaurants along 5th avenue, and, shall we say, well preserved women!

While you are thinking about it, you'd be a fool not to consider a side trip up to Grand Forks to see the Palace on the Prairie. Ranked up there with Machu Picchu and not a lot of up and down to contend with. On overpass or two.

Don't kid yourself, Naples is like that too, once you leave the downtown and beach areas where the trust fund babes live.

That may be, but I get to hang with the 1% 'ers on this visit!

The Wife and I spent a long weekend (her birthday weekend) in Branson, Missouri. No shows were on, but we had a good time. One of our favorites was the National Tiger Sanctuary, about 10 miles to the north. If you care about the big cats, please sponsor one of their cats. We sponsored Kora, a male Bengal tiger who was part of an exhibition where the tiger cubs were used to allow anybody to pet or hold them. After he got too big he was sent to the NTS. He is very timid, but is having a great time at the NTS and is much better.

We just booked a trip to Venice and Florence in October.

Good time to go, especially early in the month. I'll be in Spain then.
