Tampa, FL - Long-term cruise parking fees raised

The Tampa Port Authority board approved a $1.00 a day increase to $15.00 for long-term cruise parking at its Channelside garage on Tuesday, August 16, 2011. This increase will match parking fees at all Florida cruise ports except Miami, which is $20.00 a day.

Back to cruising.

Now that we are both retired, done some traveling and visiting our children it is time to get back to cruising. We are booked on a Christmas Cruise out of Tampa. This will be the first time we have cruised during Christmas, with Christmas Day as a fun day at sea.

This cruise is an 8 day cruise and instead of the normal 7 day Western Caribbean out of Tampa it will include a couple of Eastern Caribbean Ports. It includes Key West, Florida; Grand Turk, Turks and Caicos; Ocho Rios, Jamaica and Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands.

We are both looking forward to getting back on a ship, especially going to new ports and one more day of cruising.
