And I just had to share some of what I learnt just in case you are part of the 35,000 plus Australians who can now say they have enjoyed a river cruise in Europe.
Of course it is much more than just a craze where people rushing off to Europe to be on one of these cruises.
Rather it seems to me that it is the style and freedom River Cruises like Avalon Waterways offer which is what is catching on.
Check out my short summary of the presentation in the video below and then in a day or so check in when I share what I am thinking will be about a 6 to 8 minute detailed highlights including some pictures of what you can expect from river cruises in Europe.
I think you will be very surprised by what you discover…I certainly was.
Feel free to ask me any questions or post a comment.
John Woodbury is a local AlbanyCharter yacht skipper who assures me that no one need ever get the horrible sea sickness feelings again!!!
As a long term 26 year travel planner myself I could not begin to count how many people said they would love to take a cruise…but would not even consider it as they get sea sick in the bath!!!
John explained to me just what causes sea sickness and why it is preventable…so if you suffer from sea sickness and are feed up with being restricted to land base activities then please check out this short video where John shares a couple of valuable tips on using Kwels.
Later this week I will be posting a new longer video where John explains and then clearly demonstrates a 100% natural cure anyone can utilize immediately…and the good news it is just as effective for car or any other motion type sickness.
So be sure to check back in a couple of days…John can guarantee that this is original and 100% effective.
It is 7.30 pm. Rain is falling and tomorrow is Easter.
At least I can sleep in tomorrow.
Then I can certainly say it is Good Friday.
Nilla is off helping her friend Janette prepare some yummy deserts for tomorrow.
And here I am in the office preparing for the next week.
But rather than wait for next week here is a cruise tip given to me by my friend Rob who just returned from a Queen Mary 2 cruise from Perth to Hong Kong. Which he highly recommends.
I actually had Nilla video me from the top deck of MS Volendam while she was in Albany recently so you will notice just a little wind noise.
Enjoy this tip as it will make a difference to you especially if you have an early morning start with a shore excursion…thanks Rob.

There are many tours planned with the first being to my homeland Italy in May 2010, this journey encompasses all of my passions which I would love to share with you, walking, cooking, culture, people, scenery and history.
We commence this Gourmet Walking journey in Florence staying in a villa just outside of San Gimigiano, walk amongst the vineyards and olive groves, learn how to cook a Tuscan feast, then we walk the Amalfi coast and attend a cooking school in Sorrento for 6 days where we will learn how to make Limoncello...
