Still being blessed with wonderful weather we arrived in Fethiye, Turkey; a small yachting and tourist town near some very interesting historical and beach sites.

We checked into the St. George Lycabettus Hotel, located in the Kolonaki section (Athens’s “Beverly Hills area”). The staff at the hotel were friendly and very accommodating…even allowing
Tomorrow I depart for my Food & Wine Cruise sailing on the Seabourn Spirit from Athens to Istanbul.Boy do I need it. With the stock market a disaster, housing prices down and going lower because no one will lend money, people having their savings and retirement accounts decimated…and I could go on…how could now be
Every morning at 7:00 a.m. I enjoy my “Breakfast with the Farmers” at the local coffee shop. You never know what is going to be the topic or topics of the day. And, readers, you need to stay with me on this one. It will all come together; I am not just rambling! Yesterday we

(The Seven Seas Navigator will not have any of the upgrades until the first half of 2010 and details of those upgrades will be
My friend, Captain Geir-Arne, has taken quite a few photos of the Seabourn Odyssey during construction. You can find them here: http://www.captain-ga.com/thumbnails.php?album=59&page=1. The ship is now a bit further along, so there will be some new photos, hopefully soon. I have some new info that I cannot share with you just yet, but I can
Over the three months I have had this blog a lot of information about the Seabourn Odyssey has been provided. I figure not many of you will scroll down, leaf through the pages of various articles and such, so I thought I would make it easier.

OK, I admit it. This has absolutely nothing to do with cruising, yachts or boats. It has to do with another luxury: Golf. I am very excited that yesterday Donald Trump purchased the golf club and course virtually on the other side of the brook from my home in Colts Neck, New Jersey. While I do not
