about the book

As Robert Louis Stevenson expressed it: “For my part, I travel not to go anywhere, but to go. I travel for travel’s sake. The great affair is to move…”We took this sentiment to heart and have never regretted it.Many trips and 17 cruises later, including a world cruise, we also certainly agree with Jawaharlal Nehru: “We live in a wonderful world that is full of beauty, charm and adventure. There is no end to the adventures we can have if only we seek them with our eyes open.”Happy travelling.
