It was overcast as we pulled into Ensenada the Wednesday morning of our visit. I was up early, hoping to catch the sunrise as well as our arrival. I always like when I can see the docking process. It’s the same, yet also different, in every port. I think it’sContinue Reading

A while back I was asked if I knew of any cruises for paranormal enthusiasts. At the time Gothic Cruise was really the only one I could come up with. There was also another one I didn’t mention: Supernatural Caribbean Cruises. My friend Jade reminded me about it the other day.Continue Reading
