Cruising 101

Posted in July 14th, 2008

Leads Club 30th Anniversary CruiseLeads Club turns 30 this year. To celebrate our anniversary we are going on a Caribbean Cruise.

For those of you who have never been on a cruise or it’s been awhile, here are a couple of tips for you to consider when planning for a cruise.

  • A cruise can be the perfect vacation. You can be as busy as you wish or do nothing at all.
  • You only pack and unpack once and most of the luggage handling is done for you.
  • Meals and snacks are available 24/7 and most are casual.
  • Activities are varied and plentiful. There are pools, workout facilities, a Spa, Casino, Library, Internet Café, structured activities for children, ping pong, special interest groups meeting and much more. When not in workshops, you can find me relaxing/networking on the “Serenity Deck (Adults only).

Check out our Leads Club 30th Anniversary Cruise page for specific information on our sailing. Join us on Carnivals Inspiration for the time of your life!
