Pre-Thanksgiving cruise has been booked!

Here we go again. We just scheduled a cruise on the Brilliance of the Seas for November 23 through November 28 (Thanksgiving Day) out of Tampa.

We've never used the Port of Tampa so this should be fun. We've been in the city before, but not at the beginning of a cruise.

As you can see, the stops are Grand Cayman and Cozumel with two days at sea, one each at the start and end of the cruise.

Brilliance of the Seas
 
We were on the Brilliance for our first Mediterranean cruise and loved it. And that was BEFORE it was in drydock. Now it has:
 
Specialty restaurant Chops Grille steakhouse
Café Latté-tudes, a specialty coffee house
NEW
Complimentary Park Café
NEW
Chef's Table intimate dining experience
NEW
Giovanni's Table Italian restaurant
NEW
Izumi Asian-fusion cuisine, featuring a la carte sushi selections
NEW
Rita's Cantina for Mexican fare favorites
 
 
The at-sea days should turn into an eating fest! We're looking at excursions now and will decide on those eventually. Don't be surprised if snorkeling is involved. That's about as 'wild' as us old people get anymore.
 
We might get to Tampa one day early. I'll post that information when it's confirmed. I know some of you like hotel information, cab fares, shuttles, etc.

  1. Hi John! Could you post the cruise compasses? My husband and I will be sailing on Brilliance on December 2, 2013. Thank you so much! ~Michaela
