California Native Posted March 27, 2008 #1 Share Posted March 27, 2008 Hello! I've been posting our website on threads, where I thought it might be relevant, but we've been tweaking it here and there, so until that was done.. I decided to wait on posting it in this forum, but now I think it's officially ready I'm using googlepages, sometimes the photoalbums can be slow to load, if you see the small red x in a box just back out and re-enter. I'm open to constructive feedback, just send me an email or post here! Enjoy! Karen http://when.do.we.leave.googlepages.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

California Native Posted April 27, 2008 Author #3 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Hi Everyone... I have usually posted my website in threads that are related to specific area of my website, unfortunatly while useful for the traveler, it appears rules would indicate I shouldn't do that as they seem to disappear..VERY FRUSTRATING I want to say once again for the powers that be at Cruise Critic... this site is not commercial, no advertising, it is our personal travel journal. So, here's just a sampling of our site. If you want view info regarding Croatia and Montenegro go into Our Next Adventure..there's videos, private driver options and if you email me I will send you our Sights to See checklists. If you want to view pictures on the Pacific Princess ~ Hawaii/Tahiti sailing or want to see pictures of Pacific Northwest Cruise Then go into Karen's Cruise Corner If you want to know the European Version of Dollar Stores go to the journal and then money page If you want to see how Princess makes homemade Limoncello check out the Something to quench your thirst section If you want to know about Baltic Cruising, check out all pictures on the home page In the St. Petersburg link is our private tour with Red October at the the bottom of that page is a link that will take you to our review of all the ports on the Baltic Itinerary. Along with lists of Sights to See in Each port. There's all sorts of nooks and crannies for you to explore. with quite a few more tips that we have found useful in our travels! Buon Viaggio!

wherenext Posted November 8, 2008 #22 Share Posted November 8, 2008 Your website was great and we enjoyed looking at the pictures. We are going to be sharing this website with a group that is going with us on the Star Princess April 2009. Many are first time cruisers so we think they will find what you have shown very impressive, if you haven't been before it is hard to picture what others are sharing with you. Thanks for creating a great web site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
California Native Posted November 9, 2008 Author #23 Share Posted November 9, 2008 Hi! Thank you very much! and you're very welcome... it's been a labor of love! That started off for friends last March and has grown and grown. We wanted it to be like a travel journal we hand wrote..and then loaned to you...some info you already know, other info you've forgotten and then of course that little gem where you think...what a great idea why didn't I think of that! Many friends wondered....why are you going THERE, whenever we announced our next adventure... so we started adding videos .. so they would know and be inspired in planning a trip abroad. We hope they do the same for you! There will never be any advertising If we like a product, we suggest it because we think you will too! I hope you have chance to wander around the nooks and crannies The journal area has all sorts of stuff including games that will have you hooked! In Something to quench your thirst section in the journal is the video on how Princess makes its homemade limoncello Feel free to email us if you have any questions... Buon Viaggio! K.
