Words cannot describe the fun
we had on our 3rd Annual Cruise with Kristi. It’s still so hard to believe it’s over. We loaded on our buses as acquaintances and have come home as friends. I can’t preach enough about group travel. There’s comfort in knowing that you are not alone (but can be if you choose). And oh, the sites we’ve seen! From Honduras to Belize to Cozumel, the fun kept coming! And so did the
food, I might add. We all might have put on a few pounds, and, luckily, most of us brought elasticwaistband pants! Everything about this trip was wonderful--the people, the staff, and the ship. We are so grateful that everyone had a wonderful time. People have already started booking for our 2020 cruise! I would be remiss if I didn’t add that I’m forever grateful for my amazing team for working all year
