Whitney Houston – One Wish – The Holiday Album Christmas Music CD Review Sep 13
I can describe the latest release from Christmas sensation Whitney Houston for you with just one word… Outstanding!

Refreshingly, this was one of those CDs I was able to just pop in and comfortably listen to from beginning to end. Every track is enjoyable and was pretty easy for me to listen to from start to finish.

Christmas music fans will recognize some of the well known contributors on the project including Dean Parks and Paul Jackson Jr plus a few other notables as well.

If you’re a Whitney Houston fan, or just a fan of Christmas music this is a CD your collection simply should not be without.

While this entire CD is outstanding the truly standout tunes are track 4 – One Wish, track 11 – Joy To The World, and track 10 – Who Would Imagine A King.

My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 1 – The First Noel. Wow!

The secret of success is taking pleasure in whatever you do. This clubbed with a meticulous eye for detail is what makes Adventures At Sea, established in 1980, a winner. Their organizational capabilities are legendary. If a cruise is to be planned, the dynamic staff will handle it with great aplomb.

In short, you name it and the efficient staff will take care of everything. They have the awards to show for it. In addition, their many clients vouch for their reliability.

California cruises can be fun if you do it the Adventures At Sea way. Sailing or cruising off the coast gives you a completely new perspective of California and its magnificent lifestyle. You can sail to Southern California on a champagne cruise, or visit Orange County on a chartered boat. Yachts are available for charter in Newport Beach. It’s a wonderful way to experience the luxuries of California, as cruises can be arranged through the State.

What could be more exciting than getting married on a yacht! Ensconced in opulent and comfortable surroundings, you enjoy the spectacular views of the Californian beaches. While you exchange vows, the wind flirts with your hair, making the experience all the more memorable and romantic.

If you want to loll about and have fun, you could do that too. The choice is yours. Whether you sail along the entire Californian coast or remain in the bay, the trip offers you great scenery and envelops you with a sense of well being.

Fishing charters are a dream come true for ardent anglers. A gloriously sunny day on a windswept ocean soothes frazzled nerves as nothing else can. Do all the fishing you want from the privacy of your yacht.

Vacation charters are popular especially with the locals who never seem to tire of them, judging by the frequent trips they make with Adventures At Sea in Newport Beach. If you’ve never experienced cruising or sailing, Newport Beach is the best place to give it a try. You won’t be sorry. What’s more, you’ll find it addictive, and like the locals you’ll be hooked!
