   Hi I am Dolores.  My husband and I started cruising in 2008.  Since our first cruise, we have been in love with the adventure out at sea.  This remains true today.  Each cruise is a unique experience from the weather to the port.  In between cruises we do home construction and lots of other traveling. You never know what you will discover and learn by following my life’s journey.

  1. Dear Dolores

    I contact you on behalf of Amusement Logic, the company that designed and builded the adventure trial and the kraken tentacles of Pirates Cove Waterpark in MSC Seashore cruise ship. We found images from our work in this video, https://youtu.be/XcC9e66qxBU, and would like to ask you for permission to use some of the shots in it, of course, with proper attribution.

    Please, let me know if that would be possible.

    Thanks for your help and best regards

  2. Hey Dolores! It’s Cindy from star nails. You gave me your card while we were waiting to get our nails done. I was wondering if you’d like to walk at rocky hollow tomorrow. My number is 606875297. You can text if you would like. 😊

      1. I’m so jealous!! Enjoy your trip. It’s beautiful there. Let me know when you get back and we’ll walk. 6068752897
