The balcony. A must when selecting a cruise for a vacation. Why? There are many reasons, but my favorite – the sunset. On my most recent cruise, the ten day Panama Canal Sunfarer, I only watched the sunset on land once. It was the sunset on Eagle Beach in Aruba. So for nine nights I […]

by Craig Zabransky on March 25, 2012 in Events, Sunset Sunday
Puerto Vallarta seems to provide a spectacular sunset every night.
