I am a very curious pup. I like to go exploring, it's part of my nature. But, my parents don’t really like to let me get too far away from them which inhibits my explorations. Dad lets me off the leash once in a while, were Mom is a little less sure of me. I am not the most obedient of dogs. After all I am a terrier, and we are not known for following the will of others!
As you may have already noticed, Mom and Dad are explorers too. They really enjoy seeing new places and experiencing different cultures. Mom says it is good for them to see the world through the eyes of others.
A newer, up and coming cruise destination is the Black Sea. Located on the eastern edge of Europe, the countries surrounding the Black Sea, with the exception of Turkey, were all part of the former Soviet Union. Mom and Dad sailed the Black Sea in September. They began their cruise in Istanbul.
They were fortunate enough to be sailing on one of their favorite cruise lines; Regent Seven Seas on board the Seven Seas Navigator. Mom told me they like this line because it is very inclusive. The cost of the cruise includes not only their food, but also alcoholic as well as non-alcoholic beverages such as soda pop and bottled water. They serve nice wines with dinner which are complimentary. Tips are included in the cruise price, and starting in 2010 there are unlimited complimentary shore excursions included as well. Mom says it is nice not to have to worry about having large shipboard account to pay for at the end of the cruise; she would rather just take care of it all up front and not be “nickled and dimed” throughout the cruise.
I have to agree with Mom and Dad, not having to pay for food is a wonderful thing! I get all of the kibble and water I want at no charge; what a deal! Wait a minute; I take that back. I forgot about Mom cutting back on my food to help me trim down a bit. Well, I still get all of the water I want!
