January
25-February 1, 2009
Each
year friends from everywhere have enjoyed sailing from San Juan, Puerto
Rico, in ideal warm weather to the heart of the tropics. The magnificent
“Caribbean Princess” is a floating resort with 4 swimming
pools plus a swim-against-the-current lap pool and a 9-hole golf putting
course. The ship is longer than 3 football fields and offers more ways
to relax, dine, shop, swim, sun and dance than you can imagine. There
is also a large outdoor movie screen by the swimming pool where you
can watch movies in the daytime or under the stars. Make your own airline
reservations to San Juan or call our office for the cruise line airfare.
You can also spend some time before or after the cruise in San Juan,
as there are many attractions to visit.
Jan. 25 You can board
the ship in the afternoon, as the ship does not depart SAN JUAN until
9:00 p.m. Separate dining room tables will be reserved just for our
group of friends from around the country.

ship’s facilities including the swimming pools, hot tubs and plenty
of deck space. Tonight you are invited to the Captain’s Cocktail
Reception and Dinner.

known for its powder-white beaches and duty-free shopping. You will
enjoy Oranjestad, a charming city with a Dutch flavor and quaint, colorful
houses.

you can purchase souvenirs including art and jewelry.
Jan. 29 Today you will
enjoy GRENADA, the “Spice Island”, one of the most beautiful
in the West Indies with lush valleys, volcanic mountains and lovely
beaches. Its capital is the prettiest in the Caribbean as it is small,
quaint, and unspoiled with fragrant flowering Frangipani trees. Best
buys are cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and straw items.
Jan. 30 Arrive DOMINICA
where you will have a full day to explore this beautiful island where
nature is the main attraction. There are rain forests, lush valleys,
beaches, rushing waterfalls and a variety of flowers.
Jan. 31 Today’s
highlight is ST. THOMAS, an island surrounded by crystal clear waters
with hundreds of jewelry stores. Great buys on jewelry, china and perfume.
Take a tour to the mountaintop or visit Bluebeard’s Castle on
this tropical island. The beach at Magen’s Bay is one of the 10
most beautiful in the world.
