CRUISING comes to mind
We missed the "live" tweeting on #travelpics because we were on a Seminar at Sea on board Carnival Breeze. We still wanted to share our responses, so pardon the late entries.
Questions for last Monday’s summer-themed #travelpics chat:
(3:00) Intros: Please introduce yourself and tell us where you’re tweeting from today!
Key West, FL during Carnival Breeze #cruise #travelpics (picture above is Carnival Breeze in port)
A1: On a cruise - doesn't matter where it is going. Great way to #seetheworld #travelpics
Seeing the world by cruise ship is one of the easiest ways to get around. You embark your ship and unpack and each day you are either somewhere at sea or in a new port of call.
This cruise took us from Miami, Florida to Key West, Grand Cayman, and Cozumel, Mexico before returning to home port of Miami.
(3:10) Q2: Share a photo from your most recent quintessential summer vacation.
A2: Relaxing is what #summer #vacation means to us - by the pool, in the sun or shade #travelpics
I guess we can't be more recent than the vacation in progress during this #travelpics chat. Truth be told, it was a mix of business and pleasure, but our trips always are that way since we are constantly learning and gathering images and information to share with our followers.
In this image, you see the Carnival Breeze main pool area on Lido deck. It's not far form there to your favorite meal venue, such as Guy's Burger Joint.
The perfect ingredients of sun, shade, water, and plenty of places to simply relax can be found around the pool area. Top that off with perfect weather, and it doesn't get much better than this.
(3:20) Q3: BESIDES swimming at the beach, what do you think of when you picture summer? Favorite activities?
A3: #summer fun activities for me include #waterparks Carnival Water Works #travelpics
At home we've been known to take a summer vacation that includes some time at a water park or two. Carnival Breeze's Water Works is a great place to splash around. I opted for the slightly slower orange tube which dumps you into the "drain" at the bottom of the slide.
(3:30) Q4: Show a summer photo of yours that ISN’T sand, surf, or sunglasses.
A4: as I get older, I'm getting braver Carnival Breeze Rope Course was my next conquest #travelpics
This definitely doesn't include sand or surf, but since it was bright, but glasses did automatically darken. Here I am waiting for the people ahead of me to clear this next section of the rope course. It took some figuring out at first, but once I got the hang of it, the rest was "easy".

A5: it was end of #summer when we visited #galapagos Celebrity Cruises #travelpics
We explored this Land Beyond Xpectations via Celebrity Xpedition. Here you'll see species that can be found nowhere else on earth. You can snorkel with turtles, sea lions, and other marine line. Walk along paths where Darwin explored over a hundred years ago before writing his famous publication.
(3:50) Q6: From hiking to wildflowers, show off your favorite view of summer anywhere in the world!We explored this Land Beyond Xpectations via Celebrity Xpedition.

Walk along paths where Darwin explored over a hundred years ago before writing his famous publication.
A6: #galapagos islands have many beaches like Urbina Bay #travelpics
We traveled by zodiac from Celebrity Xpedition to this landing site in Urbina Bay. You can't tell from the picture, but it is one of the more difficult wet landing sites on our trip due to the inclination of the beach. After landing on the beach we went on a short hike in search of Giant Land Tortoises and Land Iguanas before returning to spend some time snorkeling and swimming in the bay.
This concludes our #travelpics chat about #Summer. We'd be happy to share other images from our summertime cruising adventures if it helps you plan your escape.
This final image was captured in Cozumel at Secrets Aura Resort. We spent the entire day there relaxing, swimming, and enjoying a fabulous fresh fish lunch. We'll write more about our day there in future posts, as well as the rest of our trip, so be sure to follow our blog.
