Oceans are mighty and they do call us often.

Head towards his blog for more lovely snaps and details about this magnificent cruise ship!

A month ago I was on a two-week South American cruise on board the Celebrity Eclipse and had an amazing time even meeting new friends. The cruise started in Buenos Aires, Argentina sailing down to Cape Horn, Chile, which is the tip of South America, then up to Uruguay before docking back in Buenos Aires.
