Can your smile launch a thousand ships? I bet it can! What's the first thing that comes to mind when you hear the word cruise? Do you think of a luxury cruise to the Far East? How about a slower, more intimate river-cruise [my fave] from Normandy to the City of Light? Perhaps your mind sails south to a Caribbean sunset as you sip a glass of wine while the waves gently lap the shore. Wherever your dreams transport you, I can most assuredly say with the utmost confidence that you smiled and are probably still smiling as your dream of setting sail into new horizons!

October is "Plan a Cruise Month" and the cruise industry is embarking on a celebration of epic proportions with its #CruiseSmile #sweepstakes now through the end of the month. Each week, you'll discover an array of cruises spanning the seven seas under four major themes:

  • Family-friendly: October 1—6
  • Cultural Exploration: October 7—16
  • Fun in the sun: October 17—24
  • Exploring Nature: October 25—31 

A total of 31 unique cruises will be featured and if you have a winning smile, you'll get to choose from any one of them. The best part is all you need to do is smile, snap a photo and upload it to CruiseSmile.org! It doesn't even have to be a picture taken on a cruise, just a smile from anywhere in the world. At the end of each week, one winning cruise smile will be selected and awarded a cruise of their choice from a list of 31 voyages. It's that easy!

For more chances to win, upload a new #CruiseSmile every day if you want and share it on Twitter and Instagram with the hashtags #CruiseSmile and #Sweepstakes. What do you have to lose and think of the joy you'll engender when your smile lights up the world!

Actually, just the other day, a friend sent me this tweet, "Every day presents wonderful reasons to smile!" Isn't it the truth? Well I can tell you that I am smiling just writing this article, thinking of all the faraway lands yet to be explored, new cultures waiting to welcome me to their homes.

Why am I covering a promotion on EuroTravelogue.com? #CruiseSmile grabbed me because of all that it represents! It gives us a reason to smile and the world is going to be a brighter place all month long—full of happiness, celebrations and reliving cherished memories with friends and family. After all, if a picture paints a thousand words, why can't your smile?

What are you waiting for?
