| Photo Highlight |
| On your mark. Get set. DODGEBALL! And the best part? It's on a cruise ship! Dodgeball is just one of the many sports options available on modern day cruise ships. This great action shot was snapped by our own Heather W., whose own sports skills lie on the softball field as part of the company softball team. |

| President's Message |
 |
| Sports Ahoy! |
| Sunrise yoga over the sea; sports scores and news updates during your morning coffee; late morning hiking and zip-lining through the rainforest; afternoon kayaking among the dolphins; catching a thrilling bungee jump and then a 30-mph surf back onboard; winding down with a beer and the big game in the satellite-wired sports bar. |
| Today's sport and activity options at sea will challenge even the most adventurous and athletic among us! I challenge anyone to pack all this into one day on your next cruise vacation. Of course, some days you may just prefer a pool-side Pina Colada and a nap. ;) |

|
| This months' employee profile is one of the biggest sports enthusiasts at The Cruise Web, Sales Manager, Michael Harris. |
| Michael came to The Cruise Web over 3 years ago, fresh out of Ithaca College. His decision for post college work was either to pursue his childhood dream of playing for the Dallas Cowboys or finding a job he loved. Since the Cowboys didn't need a 185 lb. free safety, his career at The Cruise Web was born. |
| The good news for Michael is that he was able to find an outlet for his athletic interests at The Cruise Web. He played on The Cruise Web softball team as an outfielder, our shortstop and our pitcher...sometimes all at the same time. Michael also celebrates his love of sports on all of the cruises that he goes on. |
| On the Solstice, Michael excelled at bocce ball. On the Fascination he was deemed the Tiger Woods of the ship's mini-golf course. He saved his best athletic performance, however, for his honeymoon. He completed the cruise ship triathlon; he medaled in shuffleboard, he rang the bell at the top of the Royal Caribbean rock wall and he led his Dodgeball team to the Championship. |
| "Dodgeball was by far the best time I've ever had on a cruise ship. And I was on my honeymoon!" said Michael. It should also be noted that Michael's wife of only a few days also participated in the Dodgeball tournament. However, she was on the opposing team. "It went great. I knew she was gunning for me, so I made sure she was the first one that I knocked out of the game," Michael explained in all seriousness. |
| So, the next time you are on a cruise and you want to participate in the ship's many sporting events, please look out for Michael. He takes his vacationing as serious as his sports. |
