Mardi Gras My Way!

I admit it, I have always wanted to visit New Orleans during Mardi Gras, I mean it's an awesome city anytime of the year--but Mardi Gras, the ultimate in party!  And I am a party girl!  Right?  Well, honestly, no.

To be perfectly honest, I am somewhat intimidated by the whole thing.  I would love, love, love to watch the parades, wear an outrageous costume and mask (I actually want to make my own) and see what's going on firsthand.  But to be perfectly honest, I don't want to take my top off in public, I can't stay up for two days straight, I don't want to drink until I get sick or stupid, and it just seems a bit too much for me to really enjoy.  Isn't there a way to do Mardi Gras and still maintain my comfort zone?  Sure there is.

I have to actually give the credit for the idea to my friend and business associate, Connie George, from Connie George Travel Associates.  She has been working with a great group of people who, for a variety of reasons, wanted a more "family friendly" Mardi Gras experience.  So we decided to collaborate and open up a family friendly cruise to anyone.  And, should you, your family, or your group want to, we can arrange a post cruise stay in New Orleans with information on the family friendly parades and other activities.  SHEW! I feel better already!

Our Mardi Gras cruise departs on Sunday, February 27th, 2011  and sails for 8 days and 7 nights of cruising fun on NCL's Norwegian Spirit.  We will visit Costa Maya, Mexico; Belize City, Belize; Roatan, Honduras; and Cozumel, Mexico.  It also includes two fun sea days to explore all the activities and entertainments on the ship.  One of the most fun events will be our alcohol free masked ball only for the members of our group.  Alcohol is of course available throughout the ship, but all our family friendly events will be alcohol free.  In addition, we will enjoy a group shore trip just for our group in one of our ports of call.

Now is the time to mark your calendars and make your plans.  Call me today to make your deposit and reserve your place on this special sailing!
