Cruise news from social media: let the games begin

Cruise Biz Buzz – Cruise News from Social Media for July 28, 2012

Cruise news from social media: let the games begin! Roundup of cruise buzz from the ships and ports for avid cruisers. If I worked at Sivlersea Cruises, I would be very happy that someone captured Silver Cloud sailing under the Olympic Rings at Tower Bridge. Could there be a more appropriate photo to kick off the beginning of the London 2012 Olympic Games?

What is your favorite cruise line culinary education program (think Holland America Line Culinary Council, Silversea Cruises Relais & Châteaux Cooking School at Sea, or the Bon Appetit Culinary Center offered by Oceania Cruises.

Holland America Line is serving up some good eats with Chef Sonia Hunt in Oosterdam’s Culinary Arts Center. This post reminds me about the fabulous onboard culinary enrichment classes on the ships.
