Tomorrow is Thanksgiving, a time to reflect, to gather with family and to eat. It also marks the first day of Hanukkah, which begins this evening at sundown. This year, like every year, we have a lot to be thankful for, including the successful end to a long surgery for […]
General craziness
Caviar in the Surf was a huge highlight of our trip on the Seabourn Quest last December. Naturally, as we were getting ready for the trip on the Sojourn this year, we could not wait. A huge kayak filled with champagne, crew members in the warm ocean water pouring and […]
I had the opportunity to sneak behind the scenes on our cruise and have conversations with some of the senior officers. I thought I’d start at the top with Captain Sigurd Darbakk. Watch as we talk about navigation, snooping, parallel parking and more.
