Well time is closing in. I am still looking for a White Tuxedo Jacket in an appropriate size. We are leaving on Saturday for the Playboy Jazz cruise aboard the Holland America Westerdam. We are going to enjoy our balcony cabin. There is only one formal night and an interesting itinerary: San Juan/Nevis/St Barts/ Hal's Private island and two sea days.


Because of the Half World cruise I decided to purchase a net book. I was torn between the Dell and the Eee by Asus. I decided on the Eee because it has a 130 Gig hard drive compared to Dell only having flash drive. It has a web cam and mike built in and works great with skpe. All this and a new mouse /pointer system where you an just tap or use two fingers to scroll. It weighs a little over 2lbs has a 4 hour battery life and I am in love!


Holland America had not assigned us a cabin for the New Zealand segment as yet. I received today an offer I could not refuse for only $999 per person! yes EACH they will allow us to upgrade to a balcony!


Well we did go ahead and spend the extra! Who says Travel Agents travel for free.

  1. Ran across your blog in a random internet search I did on being a travel agent. I've been wanting to ask someone in the business, what do you believe are the biggest pros/cons? How do you feel about your job? Relative difficulty? I'm 21 and looking for a career... Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks!
