Pia1913 Posted November 22, 2012 #280 Share Posted November 22, 2012 Venice, the Epic Sailaway, my first episode of the Ruby Princess Transatlantic videos has been uploaded to youtube. The music Time to Say Goodbye by Sarah Brightman and Andréa Andrea Bocelli that originally accompanied my video was muted by Youtube because of copyright violations, so I had to substitute an instrumental version. Click on to enjoy this video. Thank you. That was wonderful. We are looking forward to our New Years cruise on the Ruby; we've already sailed on her 5 times for54 days. We are also looking forward to seeing Capt. McCharming again. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruzer Two Posted March 26, 2013 Author #286 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Via Dolorosa – Jerusalem During Holy Week thousands of people make a pilgrimage to Jerusalem to walk the Via Dolorosa, which is Latin for "Way of Grief", "Way of Suffering" or simply "Painful Way". The Via Dolorosa pilgrimage been followed since early Christianity, beginning as soon as it became safe to do so after Constantine legalized the religion (mid-4th century). Originally, Byzantine pilgrims followed a similar path to the one taken today, but did not stop along the way. Over the centuries, the route has changed several times. Today, the main route of the Via Dolorosa is that of the early Byzantine pilgrims. It begins near the Lions' Gate in the Muslim Quarter and ends at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in the Christian Quarter, covering 500 meters and incorporating 14 Stations of the Cross. Each of the 14 Stations of the Cross is marked with a plaque and churches or shrines have been built at many of the locations. Stations ten through fourteen are located in the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. The Stations of the Cross are stops that commemorate events during the torture, sentencing, carrying of the cross, crucifixion, death and burial of Jesus. Many pilgrims stop at the stations to pray, read scripture and remember these events, while others will walk the route carrying a wooden cross. The route is established by tradition rather than archaeological or scriptural evidence. For most pilgrims, however, the exact location of each event along the Via Dolorosa is of little importance; the pilgrimage has great meaning due to its proximity to the original events and the reflection upon them along the way.

The local stew, Cozido das Furnas, is cooked by geo-thermal methods at the hot springs near the village of Furnas. We watched as the stew containing different types of meat and root vegetables was being un-earthed at the hot springs and then proceeded to restaurant O Miroma to give it a try.

Cruzer Two Posted April 25, 2013 Author #289 Share Posted April 25, 2013 Motril is a small agricultural and industrial port located south of Granada on the Mediterranean Coast about halfway between the larger ports of Malaga and Almeria. Cruise ships use the port to disembark passengers for tours of Granada and Alhambra. The only other tour normally offered from this port is to the white-washed villages of Las Alpujarras in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. This video highlights a shore excursion to the villages of Pampaneira and Lanjaron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruzer Two Posted June 5, 2013 Author #294 Share Posted June 5, 2013 Every so often, a somber group of Delta employees gathers on the tarmac at Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport to greet the arrival of a plane with an important delivery in the cargo hold — the remains of a military veteran. The Delta Honor Guard, as the group of volunteers calls itself, holds a brief ceremony amid the bustle of ground operations at the airport as the casket is unloaded from the belly of the plane. Volunteers in blue jumpsuits line up holding flags — including one for each branch of service and an American flag — and dip them to a 45-degree angle as the casket emerges. Afterward, they read a prayer, give the escort a special Delta Honor Guard coin to be passed onto the next of kin, and the casket is transferred to a special flag-painted cart.

Cruzer Two Posted June 7, 2013 Author #295 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Help Me, Ronda! If you have seen Malaga and made the shore excursion to Alhambra and are looking for something different to do from this port you might want to consider a private tour to Ronda. This small city is about 65 miles from the port of Malaga. The divided city is connected by a 390 foot high, 18th century, stone bridge that spans the gorge separating sections of Ronda and gives this city a very unique character.
