Shortly after our return from our Jewel of the Seas cruise to the British Isles / Norwegian Fjords, our new cruise friends contacted us and told us they had booked a Panama Canal cruise. We've been to Panama before, but have not cruised the Canal, so this cruise did interest us. So, we contacted their travel agent and booked a cabin near them.
We also joined the Cruise Critic thread for this cruise. We've found that participation in an online community prior to the cruise has really enhanced our cruising experiences. We've met some really nice people in the past couple years through our online conversations.
I've also found that creating web pages for each cruise ahead of time helps in the planning phase for the cruise. Upon return from the cruise it's easier to update those pages with additional details and pictures. If you have information to share, send me an email and I'll include it here.
Click on the Date in the table below for a planning page for that day. The planning pages were created in MS Excel. You can download to your PC by doing a right mouse click and doing a "save target as" (IE).
Also make sure to visit my other Cruises, where I've posted reviews and photographs from recent trips. Photos for this cruise will be posted on Ofoto.com (click on Gallery above and follow the links).
I created the background, used for this page, from one of my pictures taken during a past cruise. If you'd like to use this background for a personal web page, feel free to do so. Send me an email to let me see your work.
