Rhapsody of the Seas (Royal Caribbean Cruise Review)
Because I’m an impulse buyer when it comes to travel (and deals), we saw a sale pop up on the Royal Caribbean website and booked it.. even though it was 1 1/2 years in advance. And that was our first introduction to the Rhapsody of the Seas. The Cost So, how much would an impulse buy for a seven night Caribbean cruise cost?

The total cost for our 7-night, interior room was $1,250 for 2 people (approx $625 per person) including taxes and port fees. However, gratuities were an extra $14.50…

Where to go in Havana Cuba (Where we went, and what we saw)
As a brief background, we cubicle dwellers decided to make use of our President’s Day holiday weekend to go somewhere new. At the same time, we had a few JetBlue points to use, and they had a deal for Cuba – so that’s why we (Peter, me, and a friend named Anthony) decided to book our plane tickets to Cuba. In this post, we talk more about our trip to Havana, and specifically where to go in Havana, Cuba. Our trip was from February 18-21, 2017 – the 21st technically doesn’t count because we just used that to travel back to the US, so as a reference, we had been…
