Guest Comments:
What a fabulous week! Thank you so much for all you did
to make the
trip one of the best ever! We had a fantastic time and
are already
missing the great company, delicious food and beauty of
the land
and sea. Al, Marcia, Alex, Andi, Jimmy and Jessi.....Jan/08
Ted and Gina are the perfect hosts. The meals they
prepared were scrumptious and delicious and far better than the meals we
had on land. I would safely characterize Ted and Gina's meals as
gourmet --I'm from San Francisco and we know great food.
Because of you, our honeymoon was much more than we
imagined it would be. If there is anything that we can do
from the standpoint of providing testimonial or recommendations to
prospective guests, we’re happy to do it. You guys and the
whole Cool Change M.O. are absolutely perfect for a cruising
couple, honeymoon or otherwise. Patrick M.....4/08
