Sailing the Na Pali Coast๐Ÿ˜!

Sailing the Na Pali Coast was amazing ๐Ÿ˜! Could not believe the beautiful ocean and mountain views that I was able to see. You can only imagine how beautiful it would be to see an amazing view like this: youtube.com/shorts/DomiO6dmcm8

This view was so incredible, right there from aboard the catamaran. From traveling along with me (virtually), I try to capture every beautiful view that I see ๐Ÿ˜ƒ. As you can see from the video above, I really had my hands full ๐Ÿ˜‚. The Na Pali Sunset Cruise is one that you cannot miss when visiting the beautiful island of Kauai.

As I mentioned before, and it is definitely worth mentioning now, the Na Pali Coast Sunset Cruise can be booked from the Trip Advisor website (TripAdvisor.com). They also have an app to make it even more convenient ๐Ÿ˜‚. It is my go to for traveling and I certainly recommend it to you also. I read the reviews before booking this excursion and people absolutely loved itโค๏ธ!

If you love views like the one captured in the above video, do yourself a favor and head to Kauai for a much needed vacation. You will be so glad that you did! ๐Ÿ˜Ž

Carnival Cruise Vibes๐Ÿ˜Žโค๏ธ!

Cruising is absolutely one of my favorite past times๐Ÿ˜ƒ! I absolutely enjoy being out on the water and taking in all of the spectacular views. If you have followed this blog for some time, you already know that I am a huge fan of cruising. As 2022 comes to a close and I look out on the horizon of 2023, I am hopeful to cruise, yet again, embarking on uncharted territory and experiencing new adventures ๐Ÿ˜ƒ. If you have never cruised before, here is a glimpse of what you can expect: youtube.com/shorts/TQ-LnBQ_Kvs

There is nothing like the feeling of being onboard a cruise ship! It is a feeling that cannot really be described but experienced๐Ÿ˜ƒ. Meeting new people and trying new cuisine are great but the amazing views of the ship cruising along the vast sea is just incredible. It is awesome being able to see the ocean for as far as the eye can see.

I know that this image can be scary at first but you get used to seeing it, after you have cruised for a while and it no longer bothers you. It is calming, much like watching a beautiful waterfall. I love the smooth vibrations of the cruise ship ๐Ÿšข sailing along the beautiful blue waters.

If you are currently planning to vacation in 2023, I would like to strongly recommend taking a cruise for the first time. You will be in awe ๐Ÿซข of what you will see and the memories that you will make๐Ÿ˜Ž!

Jamaican Pool Workout ๐Ÿ˜ƒ!

If you love working out as much as I do, you will indeed love this pool workout that I captured ๐Ÿ˜ƒ: youtube.com/shorts/AyoBVnPCOWI

Wouldn’t you love to hang out here also? What an amazing resort the Hilton Rose Hall is. This was the second time that I had the opportunity to stay at this magnificent place. If you are looking for a place to hang out during your stay in Montego Bay, look no further than this outstanding resort! It looks like paradise as you can see in the video.

On this particular day, it was bittersweet, because after a few fun filled days there, it was unfortunately time to go ๐Ÿ˜ข. If you have followed this blog for a while, you have seen the spectacular views that Jamaica has to offer.

This is a perfect time to visit Jamaica because the weather is so cold ๐Ÿฅถ now. Jamaica is one of the best keep secrets for snow birds ๐Ÿฆ in the winter. It is one of the least expensive options, which makes it high on my list! If rest and relaxation is high in your list, Jamaica is the place to go.

Na Pali Coast Smooth Sailing ๐Ÿ˜ƒ!

How I love smooth sailing โ›ต๏ธ โค๏ธโค๏ธ! Days don’t always go smoothly but incredible cruises do ๐Ÿ˜‚. I was so glad to be on this wonderful expedition. Here is just a snapshot of what you can expect: youtube.com/shorts/7JcFN4VSfzo

Isn’t it just amazing ๐Ÿคฉ. I really fell in love with the wonderful views that I saw there. It is absolutely a dream come true and should be experienced by as many as possible. I honestly cannot wait to go back to this magnificent place. I have gone to many islands ๐Ÿ๏ธ before and this one is the number 1 on my list.

Along with the Na Pali Coast shores and mountains, these are also other excursions that you can see. Many places for luaus, fire ๐Ÿ”ฅ shows and beautiful beaches also. Kauai is to be experienced and enjoyed๐Ÿ˜ƒ! You will leave much better than you came.

Carnival Cruise Sail Away Vibes๐Ÿ˜Ž

Sailing is a relaxing experience ๐Ÿ˜ƒSo relaxing that if you do it once, you will want to do it again. It is certainly an incredible experience that you are sure to enjoy. My experience sailing/cruising has been, up to this point, on Carnival. Carnival does an excellent job of keeping you relaxed and keeping you engaged during your entire voyage. Here is just a snippet of the fun vibes that you are sure to enjoy during your voyage: youtube.com/shorts/UVWuWfXKuW8

So very fun and very entertaining at the same time. Could not believe my eyes when I got on the ship ๐Ÿšข but I quickly realized that this first sail away entertainment, was just preparing me for the fun that would come everyday during the cruise experience.

It was a lot of fun, to say the least. There is something for kids of all ages to do. Really the only thing that you will manage is your time to do everything there is to offer. Cruising is totally next level and you will leave the experience, leaps and bounds better than you started it!

So if you have been on the fence about taking a cruise for 2023 – this is absolutely your sign to do so. Cruises are taking new voyages and the sooner that you book, the cheaper it will be ๐Ÿ˜ƒ!

Lost my heart in Cozumel๐Ÿ˜ƒ!

Absolutely lost my heart in beautiful Cozumel โค๏ธโค๏ธ๐Ÿš! If you have not been to Cozumel, do yourself a favor and go. It is an excellent time to go, particularly right now, for a lot of folks dreaming of warm climates during this time of the year ๐Ÿ˜ƒ. Fact of the matter is, Cozumel is perfect, any time of the year๐Ÿ˜ƒ. This is especially true if you visit by cruise ship – which I did. Here is just a snippet of what you can expect: youtube.com/shorts/uVitg8KjkLg

Cannot describe the sense of euphoria when I stepped off that ship to embark on my excursion in Cozumel. Wasn’t sure what to expect, but I knew that I would have an awesome time there. I certainly did – visiting Chankanaab. If you are interested in what Chankanaab looks like, look no further than this blog, in which I have provided pictures and videos to peak your traveling interest.

If you are looking to become a snow bird and fly or sail south for the winter ๐Ÿฅถ. You will most certainly enjoy the gorgeous views and vibes of Cozumel, Mexico๐Ÿ˜ƒ!

Na Pali Coast Sky View๐Ÿ˜Ž!

Sailing โ›ต๏ธ the Na Pali Coast is so very beautiful ๐Ÿคฉ! Touring the Na Pali Coast from above, is just absolutely phenomenal. There is nothing in the world like the view of this world famous coast – as you can attest to from this video: youtube.com/shorts/ap5GaUB5BEo

This view is amazing and no doubt, a once in a lifetime view. The beautiful island of Kauai is undoubtedly one of the best kept secrets of the Hawaiian ๐ŸŒบ islands. To say that I was shocked by the stunning views is an understatement. I had never seen anything like this in all of my travels. It honestly, takes your breath away and makes you a storyteller at the same time.

The holidays are right around the corner and what a wonderful Christmas gift, a trip to Kauai would be ๐Ÿ˜€! In the interest of transparency, I actually booked a 2022 trip to Kauai, in December 2021. It was sort of a Christmas gift ๐ŸŽ to myself. I had never been and wanted to go. I had heard wonderful things about the island from a friend of mine, so I could not wait to get there.

I hope that you will make your 2023 vacation plans by giving yourself the gift ๐ŸŽ of Kauai ๐Ÿ˜‚!

Jamaica Beach Trip๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ™Œ๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽŠ!

Life is a beach ๐Ÿ–๐Ÿ˜Ž! My favorite paths in life has always led to the beach ๐Ÿ–. It is one of the best past times there is. I have never seen a beach that I have not loved. Maybe it is the warm sunshine or possibly the waves hitting against the shore๐Ÿ˜ƒ. Whatever it is – I need it always. Vacations are made to be experienced at the beach. It is so very relaxing and provides a proper respite from the regular day to day drudgery (at times) of life. Here is one such beach that brings back so many fond memories: youtube.com/shorts/yFbIHu0f2Mo

If you have never been to Jamaica, make your plans to get there ASAP ๐Ÿ˜ƒ! You will enjoy the gorgeous views, beautiful sunrises and the warm hospitality of the Jamaican people. Make no mistake about it, this is a trip that needs to be taken. If you love beach ๐Ÿ– vacations – you will be hard pressed to find a more beautiful place to experience it.

Carnival Dance ๐Ÿ’ƒ๐Ÿ•บ๐ŸพParty Vibes๐Ÿ˜ƒ!

Nothing like a great dance party to get things going ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜ƒ! I love this experience, whether on land or by sea. I am reminded of a great dance ๐Ÿ’ƒ party that took place during a recent cruise. It was so totally epic that I still remember how much fun that I had from the great experience. Here is how it got started: youtube.com/shorts/teYB4OTSAaE

I will forever be a great fan of cruises ๐Ÿšข. I am partial to Carnival Cruises but that is only because I have not tried any of the others ๐Ÿ˜‚. I plan to be more active on the cruise front and try the various other cruise lines. It will be interesting to understand the similarities and the differences across the various cruise lines.

This dance party ๐Ÿ‘ฏโ€โ™€๏ธ was the first one that I had the pleasure of experiencing and the first that I actually recorded also. I am a big fan of making videos while I am on vacation. Of course, you probably figured that by now, ๐Ÿ˜‚ since I have this travel blog and other travel related social media accounts (@travelfitguru). Find and follow me on all social media for more๐Ÿ˜ƒ.

Carnival Cruise – Window Views๐Ÿ˜โค๏ธ๐Ÿ™Œ!

If you have never seen the window views from a Carnival Cruise ship, you are in luck ๐Ÿ˜‚. Here is a view from my room : youtube.com/shorts/gxdsqzzL6cs

This is such a gorgeous view ๐Ÿ˜ƒโค๏ธ! Imagine waking up to this type of view. If you have never taken a cruise ๐Ÿšข, you are well overdue. In talking with folks, down through the years, many people would like to go on a cruise but think that it is either: too expensive or that there is not enough to do.

I can speak to both concerns. Cruises are economical because you have the option of paying over time. This was a great sell for me because that was one of my concerns also. I remember booking this trip in August and paying for it in easy installments from August until January.

There is absolutely so many things to do, once you are on a cruise ๐Ÿšข. From comedy shows, Las Vegas style shows, concerts etc. you will love the cruise experience ๐Ÿ˜€. There is something to do for kids and kids at heart.

Did I mention how relaxing the experience is? I was a stark critic of going on a cruise and it only took one cruise for me to see the light ๐Ÿ˜‚. I have been on more cruises ๐Ÿšข since then and I have enjoyed them all.

Hope that you enjoy the video above and that you will plan a cruise soon ๐Ÿ”œ!
