information Click here or call Debbie Himbert (after 3 p.m.): 504-456-0846 Cruising to Russia might not seem like a natural thing. But it is the hottest trip in cruising right now. Russia is an exotic destination, unlike anything you've ever seen. And surrounded by equally fascinating places. The crown jewel of Princess Cruise Lines--the new Crown Princess is the perfect ship for this cruise, because royalty is a recurring theme. We begin our adventure in Copenhagen, Denmark, the world's oldest monarchy. Then on to all the other Scandinavian capitals, each with its own beauty, distinctive food, and interesting things to do. The unquestionable highlight, however, is St. Petersburg. We'll spend two days there tracing a fascinating history of the tsars, beginning with the legendary Romanoff family that built this amazingly beautiful place of golden onion domes. St. Petersburg's modern history is also significant. Its resurgence is obvious when you stroll down the Nevsky Prospekt, with its restaurants and shops of designers like Versace. (What would Lenin say?) Two other ports offer a fascinating contrast. Countries that were formerly in the Eastern Communist bloc--still rebounding from years of oppression--offer the opportunity to glimpse history in the maming. Tallin, Estonia exudes a medieval atmosphere. Gdansk, Poland is the home of the Solidarity Movement, the first chapter in the story of the end of Communism in Eastern Europe. Restoration is everywhere, and Gdansk is one of Europe's great bargains. When we're not exploring these capital cities of Europe's Baltic region, we'll have wonderful meals on the ship together in first class dining rooms. There are two specialty dining rooms on the Crown Princess, plus an international café in an Italian style piazza. This will be our first experience with Princess Cruises, widely regarded as a first-class cruise line. Combine the fun-loving camaraderie of our Eat Club with exciting adventures in some of Europe's most fascinating capitals and we're sure to have a trip of a lifetime! And, as Princess says, "Escape completely." |
