In an effort to document our continuously expanding cruise experiences, I continue to update this information. This list now contains the history for twenty-five years of sea voyages. The last time I changed the listing was at the beginning of last year. Since then, we've had a chance to see three very different parts of the world by ship.

This is the most recently-updated record of our complete cruise history. I have found that keeping track of our comings and goings helps us recall key life events more easily. This list starts with our first cruise in 2001. I update information by creating a new eJournal post after completing new cruise experiences.
