POPULARITY
Today on The Joy of Cruising Podcast I am delighted to welcome Donald and Heidi Bucolo, the creators of the popular and highly influential Eat Sleep Cruise, an award-winning blog. Eat Sleep Cruise was selected by Porthole Cruise Magazine to its list of the top 10 Cruise Influencers of 2019. Eat Sleep Cruise has been quoted regularly in places like Forbes, CNBC, AARP magazine, and Porthole Cruise Magazine. Eat Sleep Cruise was featured in my second book Cruising Interrupted amzn.to/3seFU8y in a section called Bloggers: Cruise Community Champions. Eat Sleep Cruise brings a very comprehensive and diverse perspective to the cruise conversation. Don and Heidi have sailed all the major mega-ships; they tend to try out every major new ship that is launched; and, they also have also sailed on more intimate vessels to unique destinations like the high-end Viking Ocean Cruises, and Windstar Cruises. They have sailed throughout the Caribbean and Bahamas, Alaska, Hawaii, Cuba, Bermuda, Ireland, Iceland, and Northern Europe and have experienced bucket list excursions like helicopter tours in both Alaska and Hawaii; a glacier walk in Alaska, exploring Chacchoben Mayan Ruins in Costa Maya, Mexico; a stop in St. Petersburg, Russia where they visited the Hermitage Museum and attended the Russian Ballet; Berlin where Heidi and Don saw the Berlin Cathedral, the Brandenburg Gate, Checkpoint Charlie, and visited the remnants of the Berlin Wall; the Game of Thrones tour on a visit to Northern Ireland. And, they have visited some of the world's best beaches including Horseshoe Bay Beach in Bermuda, Eagle Beach in Aruba, Waikiki Beach in Oahu, White Bay Beach in Jost Van Dyke in the British Virgin Islands, and the Baths at Virgin Gorda. I could go on and on, but i just wanted to provide you a sense for what you can learn about by visiting the Eat Sleep Cruise blog and YouTube channel.The Joy of Cruising Again is now available!

Eleven-year-old violin virtuoso Teo Gertler is causing a stir on the international music scene. The Slovakian child prodigy plays the most difficult violin concertos by heart and receives rave reviews.
On May 29, 1944, a bomb was dropped on the Berlin Cathedral or the "Berliner Dom". It went straight through the roof all the way down to the crypt, starting blazing fires, but it was a dud. The entire city was demolished in the war, but this church didn’t get destroyed. Today this incredible church stands tall and beautiful, burn marks and all. In life we often get bombs dropped on us, and they may start raging fires, but they don’t all explode. We have to work hard to put the fire out, and we are left with scars, but we stand strong. We are more beautiful than ever. We are proud and distinguished. I could talk about this church for days, and the impact that it had on my life, but today I leave you with this. Not all bombs explode. Thanks for listening! Please SUBSCRIBE if you haven't already! Send us a REVIEW! We'd love to hear how we're doing.
