Happy Easter, may the big bunny bring you baskets full of joy, love, health and peace.
Your LA Travel Diva Examiner is happily hopping on the Crystal Symphony tomorrow for a roundtrip cruise from Los Angeles to Hawaii that will undoubtedly bring her and her mate much joy. While I will be filing stories from the ship, you may not hear from me as regularly since shipboard Internet service functions at a snail's pace, costs a king's ransom and definitely tries one's patience.
But I will do my best to keep you posted on life aboard this sophisticated luxury liner as we sail on the Pacific for 5 straight days before arriving in Hilo, then Kauai, Maui and Oahu, then back to LA with a stop in Ensenada, Mexico. Can you say, "Aloha".
No stranger to the cruise line, the Travel Diva did a Panama Canal voyage about the Symphony a year ago January, and was actually on the inaugural of the company's first ship, The Crystal Harmony many moons ago. But each and every visit brings new experiences as this innovative cruise line continues to create new amenities, diversions and comforts for its passengers--and, next spring enter the arena of all-inclusive fares (with nearly everything picked up save for spa treatments and shore excursions).
I will also be covering the cruise for my National Cruise Examiner columns so you may want to check there, also--at: http://www.examiner.com/cruise-88-in-national/patti-pietschmann. You will also find articles on Los Angeles-based Crystal Cruises posted there.
