Cruise Holidays To Remember
By Ken Morris

Taking a cruise can be a “once in a lifetime” experience and
capturing your memories will ensure enjoyment for years to come.
Don’t think that mental pictures will last forever; reminiscing
over a dream cruise vacation is so much more meaningful when you
have something tangible.

Bringing a camera with you is a given but don’t rely on your
old 35mm or disposable cameras. These have unpredictable
results. Invest in a nice digital camera that is lightweight and
“point and shoot”. These not only take excellent pictures but
you can view your photos right away and won’t have to wait to
develop the film. You can also easily send your photos to your
friends and relatives via the internet right when you return
from your cruise. More expensive cameras also have a video
option that can capture the action of your holiday. Bring at
least one extra memory card since your sure to be taking many
pictures.

You can get the entire family involved in taking photos. If
you’re kids are old enough, let them have the camera to take
pictures. If they’re young, buy a few disposable cameras so they
can enjoy in the fun of creating memories of their holiday. If
you’ll be doing some snorkeling or fishing, consider buying a
waterproof disposable camera that won’t get ruined if it gets
wet.

Many feel awkward about taking pictures since they feel like a
silly tourist but if you’re on a cruise then everyone is a
tourist. Feel free to ask others to take pictures of you and
your family. Take pictures with the crew; they won’t mind since
they’re used to it. Take candid pictures of your family enjoying
themselves and enjoying the cruise. While pictures of landscapes
and ocean views are beautiful, pictures with the family capture
the best memories.

A cruise is a perfect place to write in a journal. You can
document your adventures and while it takes some effort, it will
definitely be enjoyable reading for years to come. You can take
excerpts from your cruise and blog at ports of call or when you
return.

Collect odds and ends from your cruise such as ticket stubs,
matchbooks and menus. Though they may not be appreciated right
away, they will provide for lasting memories.

Making a scrapbook is very popular for keeping memories alive.
You can print photos, add ticket stubs and include quotes from
your journal entries. The scrapbook can be used for years to
come to reflect on your exciting cruise.

A cruise is sure to be an enjoyable and exciting vacation.
Though it may not seem necessary while you’re on holiday, taking
photos, keeping a journal, and keeping souvenirs will help
preserve your wonderful memories for years to come.
