This was our 4th HAL cruise and about our 40th cruise overall. We have been fortunate to have done of the worlds best cruises itineraries all over the world. We started cruising in our 40s and have done as many as two a year.

This last cruise was the 18 day San Diego - Hawaii departing in January 2018.
