Happy New Year everyone.
It’s the time of year when many magazines compile their top ten lists. So we decided to make our own list. What conclusion can we draw from 2011’s list of most popular posts on the Women and Cruising Blog? Perhaps only that we women cruisers are a diverse group – as concerned about the practicalities (shampoo!, dinghies!, finances!, seasickness!, pressure cookers!…) as we are about the experience of cruising.
So check out this list. Perhaps some of these posts slipped by you this year. Add your own comments to these posts so that future readers can benefit from your experience. And while you are at it, put on your to-do list for 2012: Write for Women and Cruising!
Here are the 12 most-read posts on Women and Cruising in 2011.
