My wife and I just had our first cruise on the brand new Celebrity Edge back in November of 2018. What separates this ship is the beauty of it. Celebrity actually hired artists to work with the ship design team so you would feel a difference in the ship. It worked. The other thing that…
What a great day to write this post as I sit in my office staring out all the white snow nature has dumped on my home state of Ohio. Trying not to get cabin fever as I’m enduring my second day of being confined to the house with under a level 3 snow emergency. What…
My wife and I recently had the opportunity to stay at Club Med Sandpiper Bay in Florida. This is a great property for the right family. If you are looking to stay in the continental US, want an all inclusive with great service, and are an active person/family, this is the place for you. This…
This will be the last post in our 4 part series on Royal Caribbean’s Symphony of the Seas mega ship. This post is going to focus on the staterooms and suites on-board. Before we jump into it, I just have to say, it is a bit sad to have to see this one come to…
This will be part 3 of a 4 part series on Royal Caribbean’s Symphony of the Seas mega ship. This post is going to focus on the Entertainment on-board. Like everything else on this ship, there are a lot of options and I am only going to cover the options we were able to experience,…

There are many choices for excursions in Jamaica. This is one of the things I believe differentiates Jamaica from the Dominican Republic and will make it a better experience for active families. Easy day trips can be made to Ocho Rios, Dunns Falls and other places. You can bobsled down a mountain (cool runnings anyone?),…
This is part 3 of what will be a 4 part series on all-inclusive properties and excursions I experienced in Jamaica. The Riu Palace Tropical Bay has big potential. It is a bit difficult to fully review this property as they are in the finishing stages of renovation and construction of new expansion units. Much…
This is part 2 of what will be a 4 part series on all-inclusive properties and excursions I experienced in Jamaica. The Secrets Wild Orchid property is part of an adults only complex of hotels in Montego Bay that includes Secrets Wild Orchid, Secrets Saint James, and Breathless.
