Thanks, Telegraph!

While having my coffee and browsing the web, I happened to notice an article in The Telegraph entitled "The world's best travel blogs." Sub-titled "Candid, up-to-date and on the spot travel blogs are an excellent way to research a holiday. Suzy Bennett picks 25 of the best," I was naturally curious to see her picks.

What followed was something of a surprise. Naturally I expected the selections to be UK-centric and when I got to "Best for cruises" it was no surprise to see that the top choice was a site aimed at UK cruisers. But I was pleased to read, "Also have a look at the American blog cruisediva.blogspot.com"!

Although the Cruise Diva blog was conceived as a bit of lagniappe (a little something extra) to accompany the Cruise Diva website, it has taken on a life of its own and it is gratifying to know that it has been recognized not only in the US, but the UK as well.

Thanks, Ms. Bennett!
