Cruiseline, Destinations, and FOOD!
I use a lot of resources when I am looking for the best deal/prices for cruises. I love Princess Cruiselines for a middle of the road, older crowd who are getting to their “over the party all the time but not yet ready to retire” era and I especially... I also included some of my favorite hotels, restaurants and eateries on board the most beautiful ship at sea (IMO) Majestic Princess AND things that I found useful while on my cruise.
What can I Say? I'm a Princess Girly! These are my people. For the kids are grown/empty nesters who aren't ready to retire yet. It's peaceful and relaxing.

Rodeway Inn & Suites Fort Lauderdale Hotel Close Port Everglades Cruise
We LOVED touring Roatan with this company. We designed our own excursion and they were on time, waiting for us exactly where they said they would be. Our guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. We visited Gumbalimba Park, West End Beach, Rum Cake Factory, took some scenic group pics grabbed a bite to eat, visited Stone Castle Cameo Factory, and still got back to port well ahead of the schedule....

We had a very peaceful afternoon at Beacher's during the off season. I'm sure it's probably a lot busier right now. No one bothered us. It was a clear, slightly windy day. We hada light lunch of chicken fingers, pina colodas and Bahama mamas, and chi...
Beacher's Roatan Bar and Grill
I loved this park. It was off season so it was peaceful. The monkeys were friendly but very curious so don't wear your glasses, hats or have anything they can grab and run away with. they took my medallion from my cruise ship so I had to get another ...
Gumbalimba Park
I was hobbled on this cruise so I hung out at this restaurant which was literally across from where my cruiseship was docked. I took the peditaxi because I could barely walk due to a meniscus tear. I enjoyed fresh made churros, music, and the best wa...

I took the tram into the port where I took a left and made my way, very slowly, over to an area in between the dolphin experience and the free pool/swim up bar. A very nice person helped me limp over to a lounger, and grabbed my order of strawberry d...

We had the very best pizza ever in this quiet little spot, or at least it was when we were onboard. My son ordered a calzone and it was ENORMOUS! Everything was hot, and cheesy and perfect.
Alfredo GiGi’s | Classic Italian Pizzeria
A lot of people dunk on o'Malley's. We absolutely enjoyed every minute of it. The burgers were incredible, my fish n chips were hot, fresh and delicious. The Irish Apple Cake was Chef's Kiss
O'Malley's | Irish Pub & Sports Bar
This excursion is not for the mobility challenged. I didn't get to go this time because of my knee injury. My husband and sons did go and had a great time exploring.
Zona Arqueológica de Chacchoben
I LOVE Cameos. this was a must stop for me. I did purchase a small cameo pendant. We met one of the artisans who carves such delicate images out of conch shells. It's a free stop and an interesting lesson in arts that are slowly disappearing. I fully intend to go back again. I loved the time we spent touring the ‘factory’.

We arrived just as they opened so they weren't quite ready for us. We had our pictures taken at the scenic area then headed back inside for some very fresh, soft, moist rum cake and superb rum. We highly reccommend this little cake shop, for the cake...
