Wir sind dann mal weg

Then we flew back to Miami from Santiago de los Caballeros on February 11th. We quickly booked the Adventure of the Seas there. It was transferred to Puerto Rico after the dry...

We flew from Panama to the Dominican Republic. We had reserved an apartment here for 4 weeks. The complex was also very nice and well maintained. All in all, we found it quite...

It was pretty much the worst thing I saw during the whole trip. How can a city on the Caribbean Sea be left in such a state of decay? Huge cruise ships stop there, and I...

So if you're already in Panama, you have to go there, of course. To the canal. Very impressive when the giant ships are being pulled through. It's probably just as beautiful to...

On January 6th, we went from Miami to Panama. Drop off the rental car, which now had 2000 more miles on the odometer, and then off to Panama. There we had trouble with the...

So, now the house should be full. The children are here. I haven't seen my children for over 2 months. It was time again. Some plans were made during this time. Grilling and...

He arrived late at midnight. It was a long journey. Time to go home and have a beer. Now we had another week before the rest of the family was supposed to arrive. The rest of...

My wish was to spend Christmas under a lit palm tree. So shopping was the first thing on the agenda. Here a little decoration and there a few lights :-) Here I show you some...

After we get off the ship, we hop into the shuttle to pick up the rental car. This always has to be quick. There were some ships in the harbor and a lot of people want a rental...

From the Cayman Islands we then went to Costa Maya in Mexico. We had been given a trip by the children, we wanted to visit the Mayan pyramids there. So we got in the bus and off...

I love these trips from Miami or like now, from Ft. Lauderdale. We already knew the ship from last time. So there was nothing to explore. The floor was also the same, so we...

From Aruba, we then headed straight to Miami. We had already arranged to meet Manuel beforehand, who was supposed to take us to Ft. Lauderdale. We had to be taken to Ft....

The Dutch are lucky to have such beautiful islands in the middle of the Caribbean. You could also spend a 14-day vacation here. Unfortunately, there are too many ships in the...

We did a quad tour on Bonaire. A very hot and dusty affair. We drove over rough terrain on the 4 wheels. Afterwards we looked like pigs.

Super beautiful island, very nice people. A bit of Dutch flair. We did some shopping, which felt like we were on the Schildergasse in Cologne because at the same time the AIDA...

The route of the Navigator was one of the best we have done so far. 9 days over Labadee/Haiti to Curacao, Bonaire and Aruba. Unfortunately, the ship itself was the worst we have...

In Nashville it was too cold for us :-). So we flew back to Miami. We had a hotel in Miami Beach near Ocean Drive for the next 4 days. In between, we also took a trip to Key...

This route also took forever. The streets are hundreds of kilometers long, all the same. The hotel that awaited us this time overshadowed everything else. I would have preferred...

Since we left New Orleans one day earlier, we needed a hotel for an overnight stay. In Natchez we found the Mangolia. Very nice hotel. Then we continued on to Memphis. Drive...

During these days, we explored as much as possible. It is such an interesting city. We met German immigrants who have been living there for years, and we visited a brewery that...

The next morning, we took a shuttle bus to the airport. We flew with AA via Charlotte to New Orleans. All flights were on time and it went smoothly. In New Orleans, we picked up...

On November 9th, we went to Orlando for one night, as our flight to New Orleans was very early the next day. We returned the car and strolled a bit through the Florida Mall.

If you're already there, you have to check it out. Otherwise, there wasn't much going on in Daytona.

After 14 days we arrived at our destination. The check-out went smoothly, we were already at the port at 3:30 AM. We then disembarked around 8:30 AM, went through immigration...

After so much water, it's nice to see some land. The reason wasn't so nice, there was a medical emergency on board that couldn't wait until Ft. Lauderdale. That's why we made a...

A whole week of nothing but water. We only saw one ship the entire time. However, the program on the ship was very diverse. If you want to experience everything, it can even get...

Last stop before crossing the big pond. A small town with a pretty shopping street. There is a slight South American influence here, as many people from Cuba and South America...

Nach dem Frühstück ging es zum Landgang. Eigentlich wollten wir uns mit dem Hop on Hop off die Insel anschauen, aber wenn 3000 Leute das auch wollen, wird es eng im Bus. Deshalb...

After a relaxing day at sea, our next stop was in Tenerife. We explored this place on foot: there wasn't much to see

After having a sea day, we docked in Cádiz. A city that claims to be the oldest city in Europe. There is no hurry here. We explored the city on a Segway.
