Discover the Beauty of Island Culture with a Caribbean Cruise

Nothing says "get away from it all" like a Caribbean cruise. Not only do you get to enjoy dozens of Caribbean destinations, but you get the relaxation and luxury of a cruise ship to take you there.
The Caribbean is actually made up of a wide variety of tropical and subtropical places that offer all the best of water activities: beaches, sun, waves, snorkeling, surfing, windsurfing, sailing, scuba diving and swimming with dolphins.
For the record, there are about 50 islands in the Caribbean and some 35 destinations spots including Antigua and Barbuda, Aruba, the Bahamas, Barbados, the British and American Virgin Islands, the Cayman Islands, Grenada, Guadeloupe, Jamaica, Montserrat, Puerto Rico, St. Lucia, St. Martin, Trinidad and Tobago, and Turks and Caicos.
If you want to sail to the Windward Islands, you will be visiting Grenada, St. Lucia, Dominica and St. Vincent. Of these, St. Lucia ranks as the most visited and St. Vincent as the least visited. Grenada remains extremely popular for sailors and divers. And Dominica is popular with nature tourists and scuba divers.
The six Leeward Islands include Montserrat, Nevis and St. Kitts to the west. Toward the east are Antigua, Barbuda and Anguilla. They were all originally British colonies.
You will also find the British Virgin Islands and the United States Virgin Islands in the Caribbean. While the British Virgin Islands – including two of the largest islands, Tortola and Virgin Gorda – are more secluded and quiet, the U.S. islands – St. Thomas, St. John, and St. Croix – entertain plenty of tourists each year.
You will find French food and culture in the French Antilles' two regions: Guadeloupe and the larger island of Martinique. Tourism is popular, but it is a more authentic brand of tourism than that found on some other more popular islands.
If you are looking to visit breathtaking reefs, consider a stop at the Netherlands Antilles, made up of Aruba, Bonaire, Curacao, Saba, Sint Eustatius and Sint Maarten. You will experience Dutch culture blended with the islands' history, food and even language.
Other Caribbean states include the Cayman Islands, Cuba, Haiti, Jamaica – along with Barbados, the Dominican Republic, Trinidad and Tobago. The Commonwealth of Puerto Rico is also part of this group.
The cost to cruise to the Western, Eastern and the Southern Caribbean are sometimes hard to believe. For about the cost of an overnight stay in a hotel, you can spend a night on a cruise ship – a price that includes all the food and entertainment they have to offer.
Western Caribbean
At prices starting at below $300 (per person and based on double occupancy), you will leave out of Miami, Florida, to spend five nights on the high seas. Your first and second nights will be spent at sea, but on the third day you will visit Roatan, Honduras, and on the fourth day you can take in Cozumel, Mexico, before returning to Miami. This cruise is aboard the revitalized Celebrity Century and its 314 rooms with private verandas, 14 new Sky Suites and 174 new staterooms, not to mention tons of activities and entertainment.
Eastern Caribbean
For around $500 a person (double occupancy), you can spend seven nights at sea visiting Samana, St. Thomas, Tortola and Great Stirrup Cay. Aboard the brand new Norwegian Pearl, you can try any of the ship's 12 dining establishments or relax at one of the ship's 11 bars and lounges. This cruise leaves out of Miami.
Another seven-night cruise to the Eastern Caribbean is aboard Holland America's Eurodam. For just about $600 a person, you will leave Fort Lauderdale, Florida, for Grand Turk, San Juan, St. Thomas and Half Moon Cay in the Bahamas.
Southern Caribbean
For about $500 a person, you can spend seven days aboard the Princess Caribbean Princes as it leaves San Juan, Puerto Rico, to visit Aruba, Bonaire, Grenada, Dominica and St. Thomas. The ship will spend the first two nights at sea. You will spend days three and four in Aruba, followed by a day each in Grenada, Dominica and St. Thomas before heading back to San Juan. This cruise is aboard the largest ship in the Princess Caribbean fleet, offering almost 900 cabins with balconies.
Another seven-night Southern Caribbean cruise is less than $600 per person and visits San Juan, Charlotte Amalie, St. Croix, St. John's, Castries and St. George's. Take in the sites aboard Royal Caribbean's Serenade of the Seas, a new cruise ship that offers speed, comfort and gorgeous ocean vistas. One of the spectacular features of the ship is its 10-story glass elevators looking out at the sea. The ship also has the highest percentage of outside cabins in the Royal Caribbean fleet.
Whether you're a veteran cruiser or you've never set foot on a boat, a cruise vacation to the Caribbean can offer a getaway you'll never forget. Book your trip today.

An Orlando Jewel: The fountain built Museum of African American History and Culture

After I had received History Center, an overview of the history of the Orlando area in Orange County Regional, I wanted to dive a little deeper social history of the Orlando area and fountains built museum of African American History and Culture in me 'deepening of Orlando's African American history.

Even today this area west of I-4 is predominantly African-American and the difference in the housing and settlementServices between this area and the center is very important. In fact, the very name "Division Street" suggests a distinct historical line of demarcation between residential areas in black and white.

The origins of the fountain built museum to go to a prominent local African physician named Dr. William Monroe Wells, construction of the fountain in 1926, this hotel for African-Americans at a time of racial segregation can not be started when houses Wereavailable to them in other areas of Central Florida.

Beside the Wells 'Built was once the South Street Casino, a hall, the musicians that the "Chitlin Circuit also traveled to' Run for audiences around the country. The hotel is open with three windows on the first floor rooms the second floor.

Dr. William Monroe Wells was one of Orlando 's first black physicians and came to the area in 1917. Born in Ft Gaines, Georgia,1889, Dr. Wells completed his medical training at Meharry Medical College. During part of World War II, William Monroe Wells was the only African American physician Dr. in Orlando.

During segregation, white doctors are not treating African American patients. African American doctors, therefore, deserves their money from the people of their race. He worked very hard to Orlando to the growing African American population a. With the help of his assistant, Mrs. Josie Belle JacksonDr. Wells is known for providing more than 5,000 children in Orlando.

Treated patients with pneumonia, influenza, scarlet fever and other serious illnesses before drugs like penicillin were introduced. Many of the patients of Dr. Wells' were very poor. He treated their illnesses though they often could not afford to pay his fees. This allowed them to use force against poor conditions that existed in the African American community, without losing their fear of speakingLiving.

Although African Americans were taxpayers like other residents of Orlando, They have no access to recreational facilities, good schools, police, health care and services of other citizens Know That made available. This led him to South Street Casino, and building the structure next door.

Dr. Wells booked bands and other big names in entertainment perform at the South Street Casino. Many famous artists that we know today, he played at South Street Casinowithin the Chitlin Circuit. Some examples of these performers are:

- Ray Charles
- BB King
- Louis Armstrong
- Guitar Slim
- Bo Diddley

African-Americans came from all over the Orlando area to purchase and take in performances of popular musicians at the South Street Casino. After the performance at the casino, check the artists at the historic hotel, built in Wells'. In its heyday, Wells built accommodation 'for such clients asBates wooden leg, Ella Fitzgerald, Roy Campanella, Jackie Robinson, Thurgood Marshall. The athletes who attend the show and the structure of this one of the most popular for African Americans in the South.

Today, the museum has 6,000 square feet of exhibition space. It retains the original façade of the building, a room with authentic furniture, beads and decorations in 1930, and also brings original interior wall reflecting important architecturalElements and designs unique to the period. Exhibition material collected for the exhibition: the official hotel documents, an original Negro League Baseball jerseys, photographs, artifacts, books, multimedia exhibits, slave records and other items of historical importance.
