Shakespeare at Sea

I've heard about Semester at Sea, but now, thanks to a Tony-award winning local group, students can experience the wonder of Shakespeare on the water as well.

The Oregon Shakespeare Festival is sponsoring their second Shakespeare Cruise in November, touring through the French Caribbean.

The trip aboard Holland America stops in Tortola, St. Lucia, Barbados, Martinique, St. Maarten and the Bahamas, with three live performances, seven lectures, two cocktail hours, four workshops and a half-dozen movie productions of the theatrical works.

Princess Cruises knows how to spread the "Love"

David Seeberger, one of TheBigDay's travel specialists, recently attained the status of Commodore Travel Agent from Princess Cruises. As an added benefit, David has had the opportunity to rub elbows with the one and only Gavin MacLeod - otherwise known as The Love Boat's Captain Stubing! :)

David, our very own TravelMan, first met the Captain at the Las Vegas Luxury travel show and most recently in Seattle. MacLeod is the spokesman for Princess Cruises and has worked wonders for the cruise industry - so it is always an event to meet a true icon!
