We are back for now one week.

 

The blog in German is completed and we really enjoyed the cruise. We loved the ship.

 

Our tour went on January 4, 2010 on CELEBRITY EQUINOX from Fort Lauderdale, FL to George Town, Cayman Island - Cartagena, Colombia - Colon, Panama - Puerto Limon, Costa Rica - Roatan, Honduras - Cozumel, Mexico and back to Fort Lauderdale, FL.

 

Three possible entries:

I think there was by mistake a wrong link to Day 6.4 - the correct one should be:

 

http://heinbloed-equinox.blogspot.com/2010/01/tag-64-in-colon-day-64-in-colon.html

 

But I am sure you found the correct page...

For me it was a pleasure to repeat the cruise while translating the blog to the English version.

 

I had a lot of pleasure on this cruise.

 

For those of you who are planning to be on CELEBRITY EQUINOX: You will have a good time!!!

 

Thanks for all friendships we made on the ship:

 

Let us know when you call a German port (on ocean or riverside) - maybe there would be an occassion to take you around.

 

Our newest plans:

 

OCEAN PRINCESS Oct 6-13, 2010 for 7 nights out of Civitavecchia

NORWEGIAN JADE Jan 2-14, 2011 for 12 nights out of Barcelona

CARNIVAL SPIRIT April 10-22, 2011 for 12 nights out of Ensenada for Hawaii

 

Maybe see you there again.

 

All the best for you and thanks for reading!!!
