My husband's
retirement from
the fire service
after 34 years and a
belated 50
th
birthday
trip for me meant a
grand celebration trip
was in order. After entertaining a variety of travel
ideas, we chose to splurge on a 10-day Mediter-
ranean cruise on board one of the most luxurious
and modern ships in the world, the Regent Seven
Seas Explorer. It was our first cruise and it won't
be our last.
We immensely enjoyed the luxury cruise ship
experience and savored every moment of extrav-
agance, adventure and surprise. There is nothing
quite like waking up in the morning and pulling
the curtains back to reveal an entirely new view.
The all-inclusive food, beverages, gratuity and
excursions fare Regent Seven Seas offers allowed
us to focus on relaxing, exploring, reconnecting
and indulging.
We opted for a suite with a personal butler who
spoiled us with exceptional service and attention
