Pretty much everything we do provides a learning opportunity for the girls. So when we plan travel, we like to make sure it’s something we will all enjoy.
In the past, we have made our travel plans and then simply looked forward to what was in store. This time I’ve decided to change it up a bit and will have the girls work on some projects leading up to travel time.
For those who have been following my blog since the beginning of the year, you are aware that one of our favorite ways to travel is by boat. To be exact, by cruise ship.
During our cruise in February, we booked two more cruises. Since then, hubby and I have spent quite a bit of time discussing our plans and decided to change them completely.
No, this doesn’t mean we’ve cancelled the cruises. That would be crazy!!!!!
We simply changed the cruises.
Both cruises will be to the Caribbean, which is my favorite winter destination.
This winter we will be traveling again on Allure of the Seas.
This time though we’ll be heading to Haiti, Jamaica and Mexico.
The following winter we will be on Royal Caribbean’s newest ship, Symphony of the Seas.
She is so new in fact, that she is still being built and won’t sail until Spring, 2018. Cruises will begin in Mediterranean before she sails to the U.S. in October, 2018.
On Symphony we’ll visit St. Kitts, St. Thomas and the Bahamas.
So what kinds of things can the girls be learning between now and our cruises?
- How cruise ships are built?
- History and facts on each of the islands we will be visiting.
- Caribbean sea life.
- Caribbean geography.
The possibilities are endless.
