Queen Victoria Pier 35, San Francsico

When I found out that I was one of the lucky few guests from our office to be invited to visit the Queen Victoria when she came to San Francisco I was ecstatic. On a particularly sunny January afternoon as I crossed the Golden Gate Bridge I could see her parked at Pier 35 in all her glory. There was much excitement and anticipation as I reached the travel professional holding area, everyone was just as eager as I to see the Queen Victoria as she prepared to embark on the full World Cruise voyage.

Holiday Greetings from the Seabourn Legend.

While most of you are rushing around finishing last minute Christmas shopping I am lucky enough to be enjoying 2 weeks of ultimate luxury aboard the Yachts of Seabourn. I am currently hosting a charming group of guests aboard the intimate 200 passenger Seabourn Legend as she sails through the Panama Canal.

The ship currently has a total of 191 guests aboard, with an amazing 171 crew waiting to spoil us! The Seabourn Legend has beautiful, comfortable suites and the very best cuisine and service.

My wife and I recently had the pleasure of sailing aboard the elegant Queen Mary 2. At 151,000 Gross Registered Tons she is one of the largest ships afloat. The Qm2 is now six years old but the maintenance done on board has kept her in pristine condition and she is showing no signs whatsoever of wear and tear.
