This site began as Making Waves~~~ and has evolved over the years as a place to share my love of cruise travel with online friends.  If you are reading this, I'm glad to call you a friend.  I hope you find my work entertaining and informative.  Write to me if you do.

As a "personal home page," I adhere to the rules and restrictions imposed by my Internet Service Providers--Prodigy Internet and BellSouth.net.  While there are links and references on this site that point directly or indirectly to commercial enterprises, I receive no payment for page views or "hits" to those sites.  I have no financial ties to the cruise industry and I am not a travel agent.  

I have no record of visitors to this site and, other than a simple counter, I do not track usage.  I'm a travel writer, not an HTML guru.  I just don't have the sophisticated knowledge necessary to collect information about my cruiser friends, nor do I wish to do so.

Your email is welcomed, both suggestions and questions.  I respond to everyone as quickly as possible.  Be patient--I might be on a cruise!  I will never publish or share any email without express permission.  I credit all submissions to the originators.

All work on this site is copyrighted.  The entire body of the site and my original reviews, articles, and photos belong to me and are not to be copied for publication.  Feel free to copy the printable versions of the Packing Lists for your personal use.  The cruise reviews submitted for inclusion on this site are the property of their creators.  Some other information is in the public domain (for example, how to obtain a passport).  The page layout and "style" of these pages are the product of Microsoft Front Page™, of which I am a registered user.  I suggest not ripping off my pal Bill (he cruises Crystal) Gates.  

Cruise information tends to be time sensitive and subject to change.  I accept no responsibility for those changes, although I do my best to keep my articles and other facts as up-to-the-minute as possible.

In order for you to enjoy this site to the fullest, I ask that you:

  • Use MS Internet Explorer 4.0 or Netscape 4.0 or higher versions. 
  • Have your browser's Java enabled. Some page features will not appear properly if your Java setting is disabled. 
  • Have your browser's resolution set to a minimum of 800x600 and 16bit High Color. This will prevent excessive scrolling. 

In today's computer world these are normal settings. However, some online cruisers rightfully choose to disable them or use other settings. Some even other browsers. Unfortunately I cannot make this site work the way I intend it to without using at least the minimum settings above. (My appreciation to my good friend, cruising buddy, and HTML-guru Bob Hoover for the aforementioned advice.)
