If you recall the Top Ten Things My Husband Loved About Our Recent Cruise, published here three months ago, you may remember that I could give only my husband Tim's perspective on our family vacation, since I wasn't allowed to reveal details from my article coming out in Conde Nast Traveler's August issue.  Well, now that the August issue has hit the newsstands, you can read the article and find out why the cruise I chose for my family last winter ended up being the perfect vacation for the exhausted mother of inexhaustible four- and six-year-old boys.
