The Lobster House soup is a really tasty treat from the ocean. Use it before the main course for extra special occasions. It takes some work but is well worth the trouble. It tastes really delicious and is great with white wine.

Jack Feka - a fellow SBIer I got to know on board the Freedom - is just starting a site with shrimp recipes. As shrimp and lobster have similar methods of cooking I sent him the recipe replacing lobster with shrimp

Here are both recipes if you want to try:

SPOT is the World’s first satellite messenger. It is the only gadget of its kind that uses the GPS system to get its position and send a message with the location along with your name by satellite and make it available on the internet via email and Google Maps or just a plain SMS message.

You can use SPOT simply to let others know where you are or if you need help.

Unlike an ordinary GPS system that only receives signals and calculates position, the SPOT uses two types of satellite systems. One to determine the location and the other to send along predefined messages to those you want to get it.

SPOT’s Satellite Messenger boasts up to 1 year battery life, it has global coverage and the ability to track your position using Google Maps, along with 9-1-1 alerting for real emergencies. The bright orange handheld device is water- temperature -and shock-proof. SPOT even floats!

Send a signal even in areas with no cell phone coverage. SPOT uses 100% satellite technology, so you don’t have to worry about land based communication. SPOT covers virtually all of North America, Europe, and Australia, most of South America, northern Africa and northeastern Asia, and hundreds or thousands of miles offshore of these areas.

Satellite technology allows SPOT to work around the world - even where cell phones don’t. Using SPOT requires a subscription service that costs about $10 pr. month. Additional services and options available.

We have never been on a cruise ship before and never to the Caribbean so this is going to be an adventure to remember! Among the thousands of passengers on board the Freedom of the Seas are Webmasters from SBI who organized the cruise on the Caribbean.

Freedom of the Seas is currently the largest cruiser ship in the world. At an overall length of 338.77 meters (1.111.5 ft), width (beam) of 38.6 m (126.65 ft) it is truly massive.

GPS systems come in various shapes and sizes. In the early days GPS systems were big and bulky and the cost was way out of reach for the average traveler. Now the GPS systems are getting smaller by the year and the functionality and usefulness is constantly growing.

The hardest part is now to compare prices and features between brands.

GPS-Compare.com is now live and can help you select the right tool for your needs.

GPS Compare is the newest member of my series of BANS - Make Your Own Niche Store sites. You should be able to find a GPS system for any use and the price range is wide:

• GPS Systems
• Garmin GPS
• Magellan GPS
• Tom Tom GPS
• Mio GPS
