Singing at Sea Cruise – 2019 In Review!
Royal Caribbean’s Brilliance Of The Seas sat anchored at the cruise terminal in Tampa Bay. In just a few hours, the ship would be filled with over 2,000 Gospel music fans for the 45th annual Singing At Sea Cruise; and I couldn’t be happier to leave all the cold temps and snow at home for…
The Far Horizon – Around The World In 80 Books #3
After reading the first book in the Macquarie Series, I couldn’t wait to dive into the second, “The Far Horizon.” Beginning in Scotland and moving to Botany Bay (Sydney, Australia – before the country was called Australia), we get to see Lachlan Macquarie remarry, have a child and become governor of New South Wales, the…
By Eastern Windows – Around The World In 80 Books #2

This year, I’m taking part in the “Around The World In 80 Books Challenge,” and Murder At The Mayan Temple by Mary Jane Mandrake is book #1 for me. I chose this one because next week, I’m going on a cruise to Cozumel, and nothing gets me in the travel spirit more than reading a…
Prague – A Walk Along The River
So often, when we walked through the streets of Prague and talked about where we would go next, we’d almost always end up at Charles Bridge at some point in the day. Besides Old Town Square, Charles Bridge is the most tourist populated area of Prague, and with good reason. Following underneath Charles Bridge is…
Prague – The Prague Castle
Across the river from Old Town, The Prague Castle dominates the skyline on top of the hill. If you think the structure is imposing from that distance, just wait until you stand on the steps of St. Vitus Cathedral and look straight up. It’s stunning. If your walking there, give yourself plenty of time. We…
