even to a big box store to get plenty of inspiration and materials on the cheap. One of Lincoln’s best resources for gently used items is the Salt Seller thrift store and its warehouse. But the Salt Seller is no ordinary thrift store – it’s also a wonderland of decorating ideas, as manager Linda Vance has created a number of charming vignettes that are sure to inspire. In particular, check out the pedal car garlanded with fall leaves and loaded with pumpkins, to the left of the dressing rooms in the back of the store – a perfect example of how to use your display items to create a seasonal look. Best of all, most of the items are for sale (just don’t ask about the enormous cast-iron urn in the corner). Some of the items spotted on a recent visit that would be perfect for fall include a variety of gourds, both big and small, some of which are dyed and etched with intricate designs ($15-25); fake miniature pumpkins ($4-9); wreaths ($15) and vases and urns in fall-appropriate colors (prices vary). The Salt Seller almost always has a sale going on. Currently, all collectibles are half off, furniture is 20 percent off, items tagged with a green line through the price are 75 percent off and everything else is 60 percent off. 2

Vance said the sale will go on indefinitely. “I want to move some stuff before the holidays, so I have room for holiday items,” she said. “But we always have good sales.”

Getting crafty If you are feeling inspired enough to create your own decor, a trip to the florist can help. Jennifer Ibarra, the owner of Lincoln Florist & Gifts, was busy this week creating fantastic centerpieces using white pumpkins filled with cushion poms, daisy poms and roses. If you like the look, you can purchase a similar centerpiece for $45 and up, depending on the size of the pumpkin. Using a color other than the traditional orange means pumpkins can be used throughout the fall months without getting tagged as being for Halloween. If you want to be especially crafty, try collecting leaves with beautiful fall color for your own wreaths or centerpieces. How about using orange- and red-tinged leaves to create “roses” to assemble into a bouquet? For step-by-step instruction, complete with color photos, go online at http://haha.nu/creative/howto-make-roses-from-maple-leaves. The Salt Seller is located at 454 F St. in Lincoln and is open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Saturday. Call 645-1636 for more information. Lincoln Florist & Gifts is located at 531 G St., Suite A. Call 645-2303 for information.

STORY BY

CRUISING

THE

CARIBBEAN

David Dickstein

o swashbuckling with pirates on this trip to the Caribbean, but that’s about the only adventure our family didn’t have on our seven-day cruise aboard the Carnival Miracle. Our “Exotic Western Caribbean” cruise out of Tampa was aboard the 2-yearold, 2,124-passenger younger sister of the Carnival Spirit, the ship we took on an unforgettable Alaskan Inside Passage vacation in 2004. Big fans of Carnival’s “Spirit Class,” which features an impressive 80 percent ratio of outside cabins and an easily navigable deck plan, we embraced the familiarity of the Miracle and our private balcony. You get what you pay for with Carnival and that means a quality cruise vacation at an affordable price. Considering what it takes to keep a couple thousand demanding passengers fat and happy, Carnival gets high marks on the high seas.

and panhandlers, but that doesn’t stop swarms of stingrays from harassing hundreds of tourists for morsels of squid. One of the must-do shore excursions is a visit to Stingray City, a shallow, offshore sandbar where the unintimidated can swim and play with docile Southern rays. Feeding time can be scary for small fry and adults alike, not just because the rays can

measure 6 feet in length, but because they suck up the squid like a powerful vacuum cleaner from their underside. Welcoming the tenders in George Town are several oper-

ators happy to take you to Stingray City. Word is they’re all reputable, but I suggest you play it safe by booking through the ship with Capt. Marvin’s Watersports, which

offers a well-run tour that includes two half-hour snorkel stops before heading for the city of rays. Other popular attractions, both on the West Bay north of picturesque Seven Mile Beach, are the Cayman Turtle Farm where thousands of the namesakes can be observed in various stages of growth, and Hell, a teeny town with a post office and a couple of gift shops that got its name from a massive coral formation that resembles charred ruins. Mail a postcard from there for the postmark. Nothing like sending friends and loved ones a message from Hell stating, “Wish you were here.” Rarely do I recommend dining in port because the food is usually much better on the ship and, well, you already paid for it. Make an exception at Champion House in George Town for excellent local food and few tourists. CRUISE/page 6

CRUISE continued from page 5

Cozumel Proximity to spectacular coral reefs makes this small island off the coast of Mexico’s Yucatan peninsula a water lover’s paradise. A plethora of shore excursions plays to this. A 45-minute

ferry ride away is Playa del Carmen, a mainland resort town and hub for day trips to the popular Mayan sites of Chichen Itza and Tulum. No time to check out the touristy Carlos & Charlie’s watering hole here as this family headed off to the jungle for a new three-in-one combination tour offered by Carnival. The seven-hour Mayan Jungle Explorer tour

had us biking, snorkeling and zip lining in a pretty area called Chick-Ha. Zip lining, for the uninitiated, is when you ride from one platform to another while sitting in a harness attached to a series of cables and pulleys. Snorkeling is done in a freshwater-filled limestone sinkhole called cenotes and this underwater adventure was as serene as it was exhilarating, a definite

“keeper” in the memory bank.

Belize Recent flooding in the area wiped out three of the more popular tours in this Central American country, so instead of golfing along the Caribbean Sea, zip lining through a lush jungle or cave tubing in the rainforest, many stayed onboard or took the 20-

minute tender ashore. The 2 ½-hour Airboat Adventure and City Tour wasn’t canceled, but the floods must have scared away the crocodiles, turtles and manatees that are promised by tour operator Bak-a-Bush in its brochure. Wildlife in Almond Hill Lagoon was limited to CARIBBEAN/page 7

pretty birds, and the guide milked each one by pointing them out on our loaned birdwatcher charts. The bus ride through depressed Belize City to and from the airboat outpost makes one appreciate what they have back home. Belize is growing as a cruise and vacation destination, and I’m certain there’s good reason, but from what I saw the country has a lot of work to do.

provided beach break in a secluded area just past the fishing village of Mahaual. Speaking of Mahaual, another restaurant worthy of skipping a meal on the ship is at the hotel La Posada de los 40 Cañones. The lobster, cheese quesadillas and homemade chips are as tasty as the affiliated Pez Quadro Beach Club across the street is inviting. Another grande thumbs-up to Horse Ranch Adventure, home of the best ride my family has ever experienced. Horses and staff were first-

rate and the setting of a lush jungle rich in Mayan culture was spectacular for the twohour ride. Not so wonderful was the tour to the Chacchoben Mayan ruins. Learning local history is important, especially when it dates back to 360 A.D., but the “scenic one-hour drive” isn’t all that scenic. If you must see them and are a trustworthy soul, take a cab. Fellow cruisers said the Tulum ruins tour back in Cozumel was far superior despite the longer bus ride.

Puerto Costa Maya The port and surrounding area sustained heavy damage due to Hurricane Dean in September 2007, shortly after our visit. Last month, Disney Cruise Line’s Disney Magic was the first cruise ship to return to the port since the devastation and Carnival is expected back soon. That’s a good thing, because what we thought would be the dog of the four ports turned out to be the best. The shops and restaurants that make up a faux Mexican village aren’t accessible to non-cruise ship passengers, giving it a plus in that the place is kept free from undesirable elements, but a minus in that it lacks character. The Dune Beach Buggy Adventure offered by Carnival through Pelicanos Tours was extremely well run and a load of fun, though not one description I read about this shore excursion notes that the driver needs to know how to drive a stick. A welcome bonus was the refreshments-
