The Historic Town In New Jersey That’s Made For A Slow-Paced Weekend Drive

There’s something magical about Princeton that makes you want to slow down your car, roll down the windows, and breathe in centuries of history mixed with that unmistakable college-town energy. This isn’t just any New Jersey town – it’s where Einstein strolled the sidewalks. Where future presidents debated in hallowed halls, and where you can still get one of the best ice cream cones on the East Coast while contemplating the universe. Princeton manages that rare feat of feeling both frozen in time and vibrantly alive, like stumbling into a Norman Rockwell painting where everyone has smartphones and strong opinions about cold brew coffee.  The stone buildings stand as they have for centuries, but inside them, ideas that will shape our future are being born every day. Just about an hour from New York City and Philadelphia, this historic enclave offers the perfect escape from big-city chaos without sacrificing cultural sophistication.  It’s the kind of place where you might spot ...

What’s on the Celebrity Xcel? A Complete Guide to the Ship’s Best Dining, Bars, Shops, and Entertainment

Pulling up to a cruise port generally looks the same. There is traffic, officers directing people, and tons of guests. But the difference with Celebrity Xcel is the port seems more intimate, there are not rows and rows of chairs. There are chic benches just in case you do have to wait a few minutes. Boarding is the same process of scanning your boarding pass and having your ID checked. It is time to make your way up the gangway and are greeted by a handful of crew showing you the way. But what happens next is the magic. Exploring the ship is one of the most exciting parts of a cruise vacation. Around almost every turn on the Celebrity Xcel there are art pieces, restaurants, and even shops! Let’s chat a little about each of the spaces that you can see on the brand new ship! One of my favorite places to have a seat, enjoy live music or a DJ, and sip on a spectacular beverage is the Martini Bar. The main bar is located on deck 3, with some seating along the wall and around the bar along w...

Rotational Dining on the Disney Destiny: What to Expect on Your Cruise

One of the most magical (and delicious) parts of sailing aboard the Disney Destiny is experiencing Disney Cruise Line’s signature rotational dining. This unique dining concept lets you enjoy three beautifully themed restaurants while keeping the same incredible service team each night. On the Disney Destiny, guests rotate between Worlds of Marvel, Pride Lands: Feast of the Lion King, and 1923—each offering its own immersive décor, show elements, and unforgettable cuisine. Because the Disney Destiny will primarily sail 4- and 5-night itineraries, guests will dine in each of the three restaurants at least once and then repeat one or more of them depending on the length of their cruise. This gives you another chance to revisit a favorite dining room or try different menu options. Your dining rotation will be assigned before boarding and can be viewed in the Disney Cruise Line app once you’re on the ship. Worlds of Marvel Step into the action with Worlds of Marvel, a high-energy dining exp...
