Today, Thursday March 10 is National Women & Girls HIV/AIDS Awareness Day.   This year I ran across a great blog that focuses on education and awareness of HIV/AIDS for women and girls, “The Red Pump Project”.   This is a great blog that brings women and girls together to communicate and educate about HIV/AIDS and how this disease affects us all. 

The reality of HIV/AIDS affecting women and girls is staggering and alarming, here are a few statistics. 

Every 35 minutes, a woman tests positive for HIV in the United States.

HIV is the 5th leading cause of death in women in the United States, ages 25-44. 

There are approximately 1.1 million people living with HIV/AIDS in the U.S & almost 280,000 are women.

High-risk heterosexual contact is the source of 80% of these newly diagnosed infections in women.

We have to continue to educate ourselves and our daughters to this very real disease.  

These statistics were from The Center for Disease Control’s website and the Kaiser Family Foundation’s Fact Sheets (which cited the CDC). You can get more information about the effect of the epidemic from these sites

No, it’s no joke. With the gas prices raising daily, I hate to be the bearer of bad news. NCL will raise cruise fares up to 10% on April 1. The good news is, Norwegian will be extending its “Free Upgrades for All” sale through March 31. This sale provides up to a four-category upgrade on select sailings and e-coupons up to $400 in onboard savings.

NCL has seen the exceptional demand of this sale. Based on the demand have planned to increase fares on April 1.

Start booking now to take advantage of the sales event and before the rate increase scheduled for April 1. For individual booking or to block group space, call me at 850.287.3990.

Happy Cruising!

Anytime you hear the phrase “Repositioning Cruise“, it means that a ship is moving from one region to another between seasons.  You can get some great deals on Repositioning Cruises.  Just remember, when you depart will not be where you will be returning at the end of the cruise.
