General Information
Food glorious food. When I get to a cruise's home port, I try to eat well. Here are my successes.
What time is it? This must be one of the more confusing issues that surround cruising. When you arrive at a new port, do you switch your watch to local time? And what about all the other times you see on cruise line web sites and brochures?



Trip Reports
Alaska and Vancouver. A couple of days in Vancouver, followed by a week cruise of the Inside Passage.
Panama Canal Cruise. Included Cozumel and Costa Rica as well.

Favorite Links
Cruise Critic. Contains all sorts of information on cruising, individual cruise lines and cruise ships - plus what has to be the largest set of forums on all things cruising.
What ships are in what ports? CruiseReport has many features, but the one I use tells me what other ships will be in port the same day I'm there. Click on the port in question, then click on the "Ships in Port" tab.
Wave forecasts. Oceanweather lets you know what kind of seas you're in for - glassy smooth or 40 foot monsters.
John Heald's Blog. Carnival Cruise Lines' senior cruise director maintains a personal blog. It is, to say the least, quirky. I wouldn't want to wade through it every day, but it's fun once in a while. My favorite part is when John shares passenger complaints.
