Cruising Information

Our family loves to cruise as it takes the thinking out of “where are we going,” “what are we going to do,” where are we going to eat,” etc.
Cruising allows us to “sample” different places to see if we would like to visit again for a longer duration.
Below are my current articles on cruising and Carnival Cruises.

Mexico Travel

Riviera Maya Mexico
One of my favorite Mexico vacations was at the Karisma Generations Resort. I went there as part of a media trip to learn more about the Little Eko Chef at Generations Riviera.
The trip was a lot of fun and one of my “fun” articles I wrote was My Trip With Mexican Coke, which showcased the resort with Mexican Coke as the “model.”
To get a better idea of how wonderful the resort is, check out the Dining Options at Generation Riviera Maya and Generations Riviera Maya Rooms.
Also, because the venue is so awesome, I felt an article on Karisma Resorts Weddings was needed because this place is an amazing backdrop for a wedding.

Loreto Mexico
I was fortunate to go to Villa del Palmar at the Islands of Loreto, Mexico twice on a press trip and wonderful memories were made on each trip. The first time I went solo and made some wonderful new friends. The second time I attended with my son to participate in the grand opening of their AMAZING golf course.

San Miguel de Allende Mexico
I spent an amazing week in San Miguel de Allende and took a few thousand pics. Unfortunately, the only photos I have processed and used to date are for the article, The Doors of San Miguel de Allende.
