Only 33 years ago we celebrated our Honeymoon aboard a cruise ship. Our bags packed with our best dressy attire, we picked the late dinner seating and our floating hotel whisked is away for a taste of tropical paradise and onboard elegance.

Just 10 years ago, we departed out of our home port in Bayonne, NJ for a 5 day family cruise to celebrate our parents 50th anniversary. 22 if us had an absolute blast running up the biggest bar bill I’ve ever seen in my life.

Three weeks ago, to celebrate our best friend’s 60th birthday (where does the time go), we left freezing NYC for 7 fun-filled, carefree days aboard Norwegian Cruise Line’s Breakaway. It was the perfect way to leave the world behind for a bit and focus on what’s really important in life.
