Cruise Deal of the Week – July 2, 2021

The following excerpt appeared in a letter from John Adams to Abigail Adams dated July 3, 1776 regarding the newly minted United States of America’s day of independence. 

It ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires, and illuminations, from one end of this continent to the other, from this time forward forever more.

Happy July 4th everyone! We hope you’re enthusiastically taking the advice of America’s 2nd President and having yourself one heck of a weekend! If you can, take a moment to step away from the revelry to reflect on your life, your liberty and your pursuit of happiness, as those are the ideals our Founding Fathers held most dear for their compatriots. 

Without further ado, it’s time for the Cruise Deal of the Week!
