Our 10 Night Cruise Starts Here, Fort Lauderdale USA, Dec 1st 2012

 

Onboard MSC Poesia Cruise

 

Three continents. Our journey began in Asia – the Middle East, crossed Europe and the Atlantic Ocean, then finally, North America. Finally, after two long flights we arrived in Miami, Florida. We stayed there for just one night to rest, then continued on to Fort Lauderdale so that we could be close to Port Everglades from where our cruise would depart. We stayed here for one night and the following day we boarded the MSC Poesia for our 10 night cruise to Bonaire Island (under Dutch rule), Aruba, Colombia, Panama and Jamaica.

This was my second cruise. My first was a Princess Cruise on our honeymoon back in 2004, so I was really excited. For my daughter Malaika it was her 3rd and for my son Amani is his 2nd. My husband and I believe it’s really important and worthwhile to give the kids a chance to expore the world as much as possible and learn about different people, places and cultures. To be honest we are starting to see the benefit of it for them. They’re more exposed for their age and understand the world more than most kids in their age for that we’re very pleased.

The 1st impression of cruise was wow!

Los Angeles, USA. July 2004

Universal Studio Hollywood

 

This was part of my honeymoon. Ni safari yangu ya kwanza kwenda US. Tulisafiri kutokea Sydney mnamo tarehe 4th July 2004 kuelekea Los Angeles. Tulikatiza kwenye ‘International Date Line’ was kind of adventure na nilipenda sana. Ndege yetu ilituchukua 14hours but we arrived in US the same day 4th July. Tuliwasili Los Angeles airport and palikua pako kimya kidogo kutokana na kuwa ni Public holiday 4th July. We stayed at Radisson Hotel Los Angeles and baada ya kupumzika tuliweza tembelea mitaa ya karibu. The next day we tulitembelea mitaa ya Hollywood na kufanya shopping kidogo. Siku inayofuata tulienda Universal Studio for tour,kwa wale wapenda movie kama mimi hii ni sehemu yake, was wonderful.

The next day tulihamia Holiday Inn Disneyland ili tuwe karibu na park ambapo tulikaa hapa for 3days na kupata nafasi nzuri sana ya kutembelea park. The park ilikua busy sana thanks for our  fast line ticket, tuliweza tembelea ride nyingi bila kushinda kwenye foleni. My favourite ride was Hollywood Tower Hotel was scary but good scary. Kitu kingine ambacho kilinipendeza sana hapa ilikua ni maswala ya misosi yaani kila sehemu ilikua na chakula kitamu sana my favourite was Classic Nachos ambayo nilikula Rainforest Cafe, my goodness was delicious pamoja na kwamba nimeshawahi kula classic Nacho before but this one was yummy!  Kwa ujumla nime enjoy sana muda wote niliokuwa Los Angeles lazima nirudi tena sikumoja. Honeymoon ilianza vizuri sana me nilikua happy kupindukia. Cheers!!!!:)))
