Apparently Rome missed me. A double 🌈 at my departure gate. See everyone soon!

A wonderful day at this year's Space Coast Pride with our partners at Royal Caribbean International. We spent the day talking with community members about the value of a travel advisor and the benefits of our partnership with Royal. Can't wait for next year!

A great second day on the brand new Norwegian Prima! We visited Norwegian's private island, Great Stirrup Cay! The island is very relaxing. The real highlight was the opportunity to visit Silver Cove! An exclusive area for those guests who have purchased a villa for the day... that's right, VILLA! These one and two-bedroom units come with air conditioning, waiter service, private bathroom with shower and beautiful views! They can accommodate up to 10 guests!

There is nothing like that new ship smell... Norwegian Cruise Lines' brand new Norwegian Prima is something to behold. Stunning and intimate spaces from bow to stern. The food has been amazing and there is a different bar everywhere you turn. Thank you to our friends at Norwegian Cruise Line for the opportunity to experience this beautiful new ship!

If you have any questions about the new ship, please them in the comments below.

First panel discussion on board Norwegian Prima. The ship has a tremendous amount of industry firsts, including a new food hall concept, a Go Kart track that drives through the funnel of the ship and more open and outdoor spaces than any other ship in the NCL fleet.

Day 4: More time in Banff and the Banff Gondola. If you are ever in Banff the gondola is a must and it is included with almost all Rocky Mountaineer tours. It is the last stop before you travel to Calgary for your hotel stay and flight home. The views are absolutely incredible. We concluded the evening with a visit to Heritage Calgary for a step back in time and to learn about Calgary's rich history.

Day 3: Banff National Park and Yoho National Park. Today we spent the day exploring the Canadian National Parks. Beautiful vistas at every turn. Some wildlife sightings. We also had the chance to visit two of the Rocky Mountaineer hotels; the Chateau Lake Louise and the Fairmont Banff Springs. Each hotel has its own character and style. Finished the day with time to explore downtown Banff and discover this charming town.

Day 2: Kamloops to Banff. It was an early start, but well worth it. The scenery became more dramatic as we entered into the Canadian Rockies. Rushing rivers, snow topped mountains and an elk sighting or two.

Not a bad spot to wait out the oncoming freight train.

Yesterday we traveled from Vancouver to Kamloops. 12 hours, two beautifully prepared meals, three different climate zones and a tremendous amount of fun! The scenery is beautiful and we haven't even made it to the Rockies yet!

All aboard!

A great first day in Vancouver! We toured the city, spent time at the Granville Island market and ended the day with a trek through the trees at the Capilano Suspension Bridge. Boarding the Rocky Mountaineer train bright and early!

Yesterday was our first ship inspection. The Avalon Envision is an absolutely beautiful river cruise vessel. The ship was built in 2019 and has yet to sail its maiden voyage. After lunch we went out of town to the Lazar Equestrian Facility for a beautiful evening of traditional Hungarian dance, equestrian and delicious food. The evening concluded with an exclusive reception at the

Today kicks off the ASTA River Cruise Expo! Yesterday, I took a stroll around Budapest and ate a delicious lunch at Beerstro 14. "I will take the most Hungarian thing on the menu please!" What arrived was beef carpaccio, beef cheek and two very different Hungarian wines. All delicious! A typical Hungarian dessert was in my room when I returned, along with a custom beer opener.

Nothing better than a room with a view! Greetings from Budapest, Hungary! Oh Europe, how we have missed you.

A striking contrast to Perfect Day at CocoCay, but just as lovely, Labadee is a destination worth visiting. So many activities, especially for thrill seekers and beaches galore.
