Beyondships Posted January 13, 2008 #1 Share Posted January 13, 2008 I have added a blog to the Beyondships website. Its initial purpose is two-fold: First, to give some background on the various articles and items that are posted elsewhere on the site. Second, to comment on various news items about cruising that seem interesting and to which I feel I can add some perspective. The blog can be found at: http://beyondships.com/blog.htm. There is also a shadow blog at http://journals.aol.com/beyondships/beyondships-cruise-blog/ I hope you find it interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naiad Posted March 18, 2008 #2 Share Posted March 18, 2008 I've liked looking at the cruise ship profiles and photos on your website. The information has been quite useful. However, I wanted to point out that the first link to your blog does not work on my browser. I was able to find the blog and then your website from the second link above.

Beyondships Posted March 19, 2008 Author #3 Share Posted March 19, 2008 Thanks for pointing out that problem. Unfortunately, the address for that link appears to be correct. Therefore, it is probably better to use the second (i.e. AOL) address above. Alternatively, one can access my blog through my cruise ship photos and articles site http://beyondships.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
California Native Posted March 21, 2008 #4 Share Posted March 21, 2008 I had the same problem with the 1st link on your OP, but followed your directions going to the .com option Great site! I really enjoyed it and have book marked it for future travels.. Are you open to a suggestion or feedback? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Julie Koefoot Posted March 23, 2008 #6 Share Posted March 23, 2008 I really enjoyed your blog!!! Do you have any info about the carnival conquest? Was very impressed with your photo of the Destiny menu. I have seen other photos of cruise ship menus but they weren't of the same quality.

Analogeast Posted March 23, 2008 #7 Share Posted March 23, 2008 Do you know if AOL instant messaging work on most ships if you are connected to the ship WiFI with you on computer. Also, does the video Im work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
California Native Posted March 23, 2008 #8 Share Posted March 23, 2008 Hi! First, I want you to know that I think you have an excellent site, and I REALLY enjoyed wandering through it! The following section was a little hard on the eyes..with the smaller font and green background. It's such a minor, trivial thing, but I know we all put a lot of love and patience into building sites and want it to be the best that we can do...so I thought you might like to know where2next when.do.we.leave.googlepages.com Except where otherwise indicated, all articles and photographs are by and copyrighted by Richard H. Wagner. No claim is made as to the content of any speeches or addresses reprinted here. The information on this website is believed to be correct as of the date of posting. However, no responsibility is accepted for errors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MemoryMerchant Posted March 23, 2008 #9 Share Posted March 23, 2008 I was almost blown away when I logged onto your blog and found a picture of Chris who had been master of Queen Mary 2. My wife and I shared his table twice while he was with Princess. First was on the Sky. We also met his parents ..Shirley and Peter who were sailing with him. Our second meeting was on the Royal back in 1999 on a cruise to Chile. Chris is a first rate master and a wonderful gentleman. My wife and I consider ourselves fortunate to have Chris as part of our cruise memories. We will be sailing on the "new" Royal at the end of April 2008.

Was very impressed with your photo of the Destiny menu. I have seen other photos of cruise ship menus but they weren't of the same quality. Julie Thank you for your nice comments. Unfortunately, I do not have a section on Conquest yet. I do, however, have a section on the site about Carnival Glory, which is a Conquest-class ship and was built shortly after Conquest.

keela1eva2 Posted March 29, 2008 #11 Share Posted March 29, 2008 Hi Beyondships Glad to have met up with you on the QM2. Very impressed with all you Cunard pins! Your web site is an excellent source of information. Thank you. Sue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoveBruns Posted April 25, 2008 #12 Share Posted April 25, 2008 I am glad you are getting such positive feedback for your efforts. I agree with the request for some info on the Carnival Conquest. I was a crew member on her for a full year in the dining rooms and am curious to see what has changed... if anything! I saw some of the most outrageous stuff you can imagine while there!

Beyondships Posted July 6, 2008 Author #16 Share Posted July 6, 2008 As an experiment in regularity, I am going to have a new post each Sunday on my blog http://beyondships.blogspot.com/ I write about cruise people that I have interviewed and cruise ships I have photgraphed that appear on www.Beyondships.com and elsewhere. But, I also wite the occasional opinion, review or thought about cruising. My thought is that if these blog posts appear on a regular basis, it might be more convenient for readers.
