River cruises: smaller ships, more intimate experiences
pjPonzo replied to Jason's topic in Let's Talk Cruise!
Whew! Thanks for your reply. I feel better all ready. I read a dozen "reviews" and they all said things like: "This morning we arrived in Passau ..." as though they had traveled all night. Nobody even mentioned the passing scene as the boat sailed down the river. Anyway, my diary will definitely mention the river's edge: http://www.gummy-stuff.org/Danube-diary.htm P.S. I see y'all have a cruise comin' up on NCL Breakaway. We're looking forward to a Breakaway cruise...we had to cancel this one: http://www.gummy-stuff.org/S.Caribbean-cruise.htm -
River cruises: smaller ships, more intimate experiences
pjPonzo replied to Jason's topic in Let's Talk Cruise!
We're on that Danube cruise in a week. Somebody said: "But aren't you traveling all night and stopped during the day?" OOPS! Never thought of that. I was looking forward to watching the world go by. So, here's my question: Do these River Cruises travel only by night? Many thanks for any responses. -

"Peter, you will absolutely love river cruising with Avalon and you’ve picked a fantastic first itinerary along the Danube! I’m sure you’ll be planning your next river cruise before your first one is even finished! :biggrin:" Heidi & I are already thinking Rhine -

Crown Princess 12-day: Rome>Egypt>Greece>Turkey>Venice
pjPonzo replied to pjPonzo's topic in Princess Cruises
"Do you have any more cruises or travel booked?" Yes indeed: A Trip to Cuba in a couple of days: http://www.gummy-stuff.org/Cuba-holiday.htm A Danube Cruise in July, 2013: http://www.gummy-stuff.org/Danube.htm A cruise to Canary Islands etc. in October, 2013 (preceded by a few days in Barcelona): http://www.gummy-stuff.org/Barcelona-cruise.htm A cruise to Barbados in January, 2013: http://www.gummy-stuff.org/S.Caribbean-cruise.htm ... and (as a change of pace) in June, 2013: http://www.gummy-stuff.org/Tally-Ho.htm Ain't retirement wunnerful? P.S. Did I mention "creeping senility"? Or, mebbe, faded mem'ry? NOW I remember: Everybuddy was asked to write why they should be picked to be a "story teller". I mentioned the thing about 'handsome couple', but that was ignored. Then I mentioned all them thar cruise diaries I done wrote ... and I reckon that did it. -

pjPonzo replied to pjPonzo's topic in Princess Cruises
"By the way, how did you get the honor of being selected as a 'Story Teller'?" OOPS. Sorry, sunluva7, for the late response. (I blame it on creeping senility.) We never discovered the criteria for our being selected. However, I suspect it was because we were such a handsome couple. Well ... one of us, anyway. -
Aah, Holland America ... elegant and fun. Our most recent cruise was a partial Panama, described here: http://www.gummy-stuff.org/HAL-cruise.htm I reckon HAL may be an "older folk" line ... and that's us!

Well shucks ... and I thought there weren't nothin bout River Cruises on CruiseCrazies. After more than a dozen "Ocean Cruises", we're looking forward to our (first) River Cruise http://www.gummy-stuff.org/Danube.htm -
... when travel to Cuba is permitted (for U.S. citizens), this stuff may be of interest: http://www.gummy-stuff.org/Cuba-holiday.htm It's got a gaggle of things that will interest us as we head to the island in a few days. P.S. We did enjoy our last trip (to attend a wedding): http://www.gummy-stuff.org/Melia-Wedding.htm
