Delicious dining, exhilarating recreation, soothing hot tubs, and exciting entertainment. You can now experience these amenities and more on the largest cruise ship sailing out of Los Angeles – Royal Caribbean’s Mariner of the Seas.
A few months ago we interviewed Mousejunkies Author Bill Burke on his new Disney World book. Bill now has been featured in a special on a New Hampshire TV station that you can see here:
“This is a picture of my daughter from our September 08 Royal Caribbean cruise (the one that you helped me get the suite for!!!) We SO loved the crew on the Enchantment of the Seas. They truly entered our hearts more so than even our Disney cruises. We also took the Tulum and Beach Break tour on this cruise – fantastic!”
We are always looking for good companies to work with in arranging vacations for our clients. One of our favorite suppliers is Down Under Answers – a company that provides great expertise and planning for the South Pacific. We recently discussed Australia vacations with Kerryn Cook of Down Under Answers.
“The Gorge was closed for three weeks prior to us rafting on Saturday. It was at it’s highest legal peak to open that morning. Mostly 5’s, some 4’s. We were vertical several times. Swells were huge. We had a blast!
Our ownership in the Disney Vacation Club (DVC) gave us many fun family vacations. We started our email discussion dvctalk in 1998 – a list that has grown to over 4,000 subscribers. We recently caught up with our dvctalk list sponsor and DVC Resale broker, Shontell Crawford, to get the latest on the resale market and DVC.

In our travel business we get a chance to meet lots of interesting people. Recently I talked to Dave Lukinuk of Victoria BC about his Antenna Topper Collection. Dave says he has 2500 to 3000 “toppers” in his collection with many from Disney.
“While we were at Castaway Cay on the last day of our Disney Magic cruise (December 20-27, 2008), a familiar-looking ship (the Disney Wonder) just happened to cruise by the island and toot its 7-note horn in greeting. Captain Tom told us it was only the 3rd time in his 8 years that the Magic and the Wonder had been together like that. That was a neat treat.”

For the past three years I have attended the Luxury Travel Expo at the Mandalay Bay Conference Center in Las Vegas. This event, held in early December, is one of the biggest travel “trade” shows around. Every year I marvel at how many different travel suppliers and destinations are represented on the huge trade show floor. It is a challenge to manuever around the many travel agents in attendance, too (the photo above is of the trade show floor).
Short lines for rides, a terrific parade, free candy, awesome fireworks – we liked these features and more for our first time ever attending Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party (MNSSHP) on a Thursday night in October.
