Let’s talk about Provence! when of our favorite days of our AmaWaterways river cruise in the south of France was the day we went to see where van Gogh spent some time in a mental health institution.

We traveled with on the Colors of Provence cruise for the second time, for this time, with a twist! We were there to understand Smithsonian Journeys (SJ) in greater depth.

Special excursions are added to the itinerary for SJ cruises. Visiting the area and the asylum was one in particular we were excited about because we know a lot about Vincent Van Gogh’s life and art.

We visited Les Beaux-de-Provence before going to Saint-Remy-de-Provence, where Van Gogh was in 1889.

We were struck by the beauty if both locations. Truly spectacular.

River cruises can truly enrich your view of the world and the places you visit! More to come on our Smithsonian Journeys experience!

Cruises are the best therapy. Share with a friend who agrees!

🇳🇴Norway is beautiful during summer. The flowers everywhere are particularly striking and the temperature is perfect.😍

We cruised from Kirkenes down to Bergen on a southbound Havila Voyages cruise and had a picturesque experience!

Our British Isles cruise took us to places we dreamed of going, never dreamed of going (but should have) and then some.

Don’t sleep on $1 oysters 🦪 during happy hour when you are in Savannah, GA during a Sea Islands cruise aboard a coastal catamaran! We stopped by Sorry Charlies, walking distance from where the ship docked, and we loved our time there, enjoying the spring breeze from the rooftop bar.

And we still made it back to the ship in time for cocktail hour!

We don’t know why there were fireworks in the Charleston harbor the last evening of our Sea Islands coastal cruise. But we do know that the pyrotechnic gods sent them our way for a wonderful treat from our stateroom balcony to finish the trip off right!

How did they know Mikkel loves fireworks and Dan was being the best husband, as usual, to ask, “Are those fireworks I hear outside?”

Why, yes. It was! 🎆
