Where is Jimmy? I lived on a cruise ship for 8 months as an employee and enjoyed 15+ cruises as a guest. I use my extensive knowledge of cruising to help my fellow passengers.

Sea time is Tea Time! Tea, finger sandwiches, desserts, and a view of the ocean. What is there not to love about Tea Time?

Tea time normally happens in the mid afternoon on sea days. If you do not see it under activities of your cruising app, check under food.

My cruise coming up is a short one, only 3 days! I usually take a 7 day cruise or longer. But there are lots of benefits to taking a short cruise!

-Price! Shorter cruises cost less, so it’s a budget friendly vacation. When booking a cruise, remember that the cost includes room, food, activities, and travel.

-Less time off of work! Taking a 7 day cruise means you miss out of a minimum of one week of work. It’s common for work places to offer two weeks of PTO, you may not want to eat up half of that for one trip. A 3 - 5 day cruise means less PTO (or UNpaid time off) used.

- Good for first time cruiser! A lot of people are concerned about seasickness or not being comfortable on a ship. If you or someone you know is a first time cruiser, a short trip is much more manageable and can help ease concerns.

- Better night life! Since a 3 day cruise is more affordable and means less time off, they tend to be more party-focused. Shorter cruises tend to have a younger crowd because they are easier for college students or people who are just starting in the work force. Plus, less time on the ship means you should live it up while your on there!

My favorite late night treat on a cruise is what I call Schnokolade. It is soft serve ice cream mixed with hot chocolate (both available 24 hours a day). The German word for chocolate is “schokolade” but at 3 am after drinks at the casino and club my brain cannot read German… and I added an “n” and butchered the pronunciation… but now I’ve been calling my concoction Schnokolade for years, and have passed on this winning combination to many others.

Space is in the news right now. Have you seen the images from the James Webb Telescope? They are truly remarkable!

Here is a photo by of Splashdown Grand Turk when we visited in March of this year.

Splashdown Grand Turk is a 3,500-square-foot attraction featuring replicas unique to the Mercury space program, including a scaled 20-foot-tall Atlas rocket and a full-size, three-dimensional replica of astronaut John Glenn in spacesuit, and a detailed replica of the Friendship 7 capsule, which splashed into the Atlantic in 1962, a few short miles from the island of Grand Turk. This exhibit is free and located on the south side of the Cruise Center, making it a must see when you dock in Grand Turk!

I love cruising with my family, friends, and my wife, but my favorite cruise buddy of all time would have to be my grandma! She was such a giving and caring person and my best friend. Her favorite thing to eat on a cruise ship was the strawberry soup and one time her outfit matched it!

Grandma unfortunately passed in 2015, but her memory will live on forever. Swipe to see fun memories!

If you are celebrating something on your cruise, let them know! Cruise lines want to make your trip special so they are great ways to celebrate anniversaries, honeymoons, birthdays, bachelor(ette) parties, etc.

This park is an open space preserve with many plants, wildlife, and terrains. It has many different trails to hike with varying difficulty and distance. If you live in or travel to the San Diego region, I highly suggest a visit to Mission Trails!

to when my wife and I went to Cabo San Lucas on the Norwegian Joy in January 2020. That ship was beautiful and had outstanding entertainment on board! We saw Footloose the Musical, Elements (Cirque du Soleil type of show), and Wine Lovers the Musical (dinner theater performance with wine!) and all were spectacular!

Cabo San Lucas (aka Cabo) is a popular cruise and travel destination. It is located on the southern tip of Mexico’s Baja California peninsula. If you cruise off the West Coast (i.e. Long Beach, San Diego, etc) there’s a good chance you will visit Cabo. It is one of the staples of Mexican Riviera cruises.

Another example of tasting the local cuisine! Drinking fresh coconut water straight from the coconut!

This was in Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic (port was Amber Cove). I had a great time doing the city tour and Monkeyland excursion through Carnival Cruise Line when I was a guest on the Magic this March.

When in a new place I like to taste the local cuisine. Pictured is a mango Frio Frio on Umbrella Street in Puerto Plata, DR.

Frio Frio is basically shaved ice or a slushee (I looooove slushees). “Frio” is the Spanish word for cold.

Did you know that Carnival Cruise Line partners with St. Jude Children's Research Hospital?

Over the next few days I will highlight how you can have a fabulous time on a cruise while also helping this wonderful organization.

For instance, on your cruise you may see the event “Groove for St Jude.” This is a dance party that you can attend for a small donation and you will receive a t-shirt and a wristband and your donation will go towards research and helping children with cancer and other diseases

https://www.carnival.com/onboard/groove-for-st-jude

Support a great cause by grooving with us on the next sailing. Every donation helps us move toward finding cures for kids with life-threatening diseases.
