Dear Cruisers;
The Miami Herald is seeking stories from people who have cruised recently about their experiences with COVID.
It is unclear why the Herald appears to be seeking only negative stories, so let’s share our POSITIVE stories about why cruising has felt like one of the safest ways to travel during the pandemic.
Thank you for your support!

Ensemble 2022 Winter Vacations Magazine
Our theme for this issue is the gift of travel. It's a timely topic because the last couple of years have taught us what a privilege it is - one that is not to be taken for granted.
Travel has the ability to inspire, to educate, to motivate and to transform. It also has the power to challenge perceptions and believes, too, about people and places.
