Episode #217 - Flashback Cruise: Our 2023 Adventures to Alaska on Discovery Princess!

Part One! Welcome to a conversation with my friend and travel buddy Michelle Young. We, along with our spouses, had a cruise vacation of a lifetime. This was Michelle and her husband Tom, first cruise to the last frontier, the majestic state of Alaska. We had the exciting privilege of cruising again on the luxurious and stunning Discovery Princess, sailing us to breathtaking sceneries, ports of call, food, shopping and exciting experiences. There is so much to share, there will be a part two! Enjoy the show! ^Tommy

Episode #80 - Alaska 2016: Cruise Experiences & Excursions!

Welcome to episode #80!

On this new show we share about our experiences and excursions during our Alaskan 2016 cruise this year. The wonderful thing about cruise vacations is that you get to try new things and see places that are sometimes that are out of your comfort zone. These type of experiences create fantastic memories and give you the courage to try even more challenging things in the future. 

Cruising also introduces you to new cultures and environments. Alaska is probably the most eniviormentally pristine and untouched places to visit and explore from a cruise ship. From breathtaking glaciers and fjords, majestic snow capped mountains to waterfalls and wild and sea life galore. The stories of the people of Alaska and it's statehood founding fills books, but to see and touch it person brings those stories to life.   

We hope you enjoyed our coverage about Alaska. If you have any questions, comments or want to share your favorite Alaska memories call our voice mail line at (424) 272-1916 and we will include it in a upcoming show.

Episode #78 - Seattle 2016: Pre-Cruise Experiences and Excursions!

Welcome to episode #78!

We just can't stop talking about Seattle! We love this town and all the neat places and things to see and do here. On this new show, we share with you all the things that we experienced while we were in this fun and amazing town and it's surrounding cities. 

Like we always say, before you start your cruise, plan to spend a day or two in your embarkation town to explore and enjoy the unique experiences, museums, tours, hiking, restaurants or whatever interests you. We have found that most, if not all points of embarkation have an abundance of enjoyable things for the adventurous cruise traveler.  

Also, we would like to introduce to you an author and friend of our show, Paul J. Hale. He has written his first crime fiction novel, Oscar Mike. From the first paragraphed, you are drawn into the twisted and disturb world of Oscar Mike, where the L.A.P.D. and F.B.I. are finding their hands full of dead, mutilated bodies and few clues, with little evidence of who might be behind this savagery. The writing unfolds and reveals the story with a steady pace that keeps the reader interested and in focus of the drama at hand. It is a storyteller's masterpiece, an impressive and lively read. If you are looking for a new book to read on your next cruise (or anytime!) get this book - we promise that you will have a great time reading it!

Episode #69 - Alaskan Cruise Ports Part 5: Seattle, Washington

Welcome to episode #69!

Well, we are finally wrapping up the Alaskan cruise ports shows with this episode. 

Seattle, Washington can be described many ways: awesome, beautiful, funky, retro, non-conforming, exciting and intriguing. What makes this city so special for cruisers is that you can spend a few days here and come back later and see different things the next time. There is just so much to see and do. From amazing sites to taste bud delights, Seattle offers so many different experiences to explore and discover. This is one of our most favorite ports and we just scratched the surface with this show. 

Do you have a special tip or suggestion when visiting Seattle? Write or call us and we will share it on an upcoming episode.

Episode #36 - Summer Saling To Alaska

Welcome to Episode #36!

On this exciting new podcast episode we discuss "Summer Sailing To Alaska". 

The Cruise Dudes love Alaska - it is one of the most beautiful, pristine, majestic and relaxing cruise that you can take. You are surrounded by nature's wonders - sky scrapping mountains, jaw dropping glaciers, wondrous waterfalls, animal and sea life roam freely around you as you enjoy the fresh, crisp, brisk air. The ports of Anchorage, Skagway, Juneau and Ketchikan take you back to simpler times, the slower way of life, with rich Alaskan history. A trip to Alaska is rejuvenating!

This episode will just scratch the surface about Alaska cruises - it is to whet your appetite, and of course, we will be discussing the ports and all the things you can do and experience in future episodes. You can't fit it all in one episode!  Hopefully, you will forgive our excitement, but we are going back to Alaska in June 2016 and we can 't wait to share all about it. 


As usual, we have the latest cruise news, cruise chit chat, our themed cruise of week and Scott's mispronounced words. 

Don't Forget! There is still time to sign up for our first "Cruise With The Dudes" cruise to Ensenada Mexico. Visit: www.cruisedudesevents.com for more information. Our travel agent, Joanne will help you out with all your travel needs.

We appreciate your support of our podcast. Please continue to share us with your friends and family!

Thank you so much for taking the time to listen to our show! We love and appreciate you, our listeners! - Tommy & Scott
