Dear Jay,
Ever dream of a
round the world cruise? You’d be surprised to know
that not only are many travelers dreaming about this
once in a life time experience, they are actually
making the journey. In fact more cruisers are going
on longer excursions than ever before.
If you have ever cruised before, it is easy to
understand why so many people are taking longer
cruises. First, the value surpasses any other method
of travel. Where else can you unpack once, visit a
plethora of destinations, be wined, dined and
entertained by top notch culinary chefs and
entertainers and be transported to various locales
whilst traveling in the lap of luxury?
Round the world trips do vary in price, but again
the value far surpasses any other mode of travel.
With so many destinations, activities, and dining
options the only problem I foresee with a trip of
this length is, “What ever shall you pack!”

It might seem too soon to
start thinking about Alaska cruises for 2006,
but time is running short to do just that.
Alaska is one of the top
three cruise destinations and there are many
cruise lines and multiple
Alaska itineraries for you to consider.

| Mexico Undiscovered |
|
Have you ever heard of Huatulco? Do you
know of
this region and what it has to offer? I
guarantee that if you read on
you will be pleasantly surprised to learn
what this hidden gem of a
destination has to offer vacationers.
In October I went to visit friends in Huatulco,
Mexico. For years they have been saying,
“You have got to come and
experience this pristine part of Mexico
before it becomes spoiled.”

What is the status of
Mexico travel now that hurricane Wilma has
wiped out the Yucatan? Any
great deals?
First and foremost the Yucatan peninsula was not
wiped out. Yes Cancun,
Isla Mujeres and Cozumel were hit hard by
the hurricane, but, the ever
popular Maya Riviera was virtually
unscathed. To accommodate families
that cannot travel to the affected areas
many of the “adults only”
resorts are now taking children for a
limited time. Deals you can find
here and there, but let’s face it – the
nicer properties don’t need to
give anything away. I have not seen any
fabulous deals that are out of
the norm for travel to the Yucatan.
Regards,
Endora
