      Its all about fun! Enjoy a relaxing 6 day cruise with Swing and Hustle workshops
during the day and dancing on deck under the stars at night. Start in Tampa and cruise
to Key West and Mexico visiting Cozumel. It's fun in the sun and dancing at night. Cruise
onboard the Royal Caribbean ship "Grandeur of the Seas"
      This cruise starts Jan 5, the Monday after the "Country Dance World Championships"_TM
Worlds in Orlando, FL and we will have a bus going from Disney World_TM to the port in Tampa,
then back to the Orlando airport Saturday January 10 arriving about 2 or 2:30 pm after the
cruise. You should really make a dance vacation out of it and come to our Worlds Swing Dance
Invitational event which includes an all week or weekend Swing Pass. Take workshops from
and watch the top Swing Stars compete..... then come on the cruise right after.

       While this is a Swing and Hustle dance cruise..... There is also a Line Dance cruise
going on the same ship and if you want to attend their workshops or dances, you can
do that too - absolutely free! Its like getting 2 cruises in one....   Please call Carol at
