Literary game around the world in 90 days. Three months on the ocean: what is good about a round the world cruise and what to do with yourself on it. "The Double Life of Charlie St. Cloud"

Is autumn already bringing the blues? Well, there is at least one way to get rid of it - go on a cruise around the world. Moreover, many such trips begin in September-November.

First, you need to take care of about three free months - that’s how long a cruise around the world lasts. As a rule, cruises of this duration begin in one of the ports of the USA or Canada, but there are also shorter programs, starting from European ports (for example, from Italy and Greece). In any case, you will need to apply for several visas at once. The hassle with documents is fully compensated by the impressions: depending on the route, you will visit two or even more continents, see exotic islands and the endless ocean in all its grandeur, cross the date line or the equator.

The cruise price usually includes accommodation and meals on board, as well as entertainment programs, fitness, swimming pools and other attributes luxury holiday. The cost of round-the-world tours for 80–90 days starts from 800 thousand rubles, and this does not include mandatory expenses such as service fees, excursions, on-board purchases and air travel to the destination port! If your travel budget is a concern, you can book only part of the route.

When planning a trip around the world, do not forget about the dress code - on many ocean liners it is customary to come to dinner in evening clothes. It wouldn’t hurt to take your favorite board games with you, as well as a tablet with movies and TV series (they can be downloaded offline in advance; this option is offered, for example, by an online cinema ivi) to pass the time on sea crossing days. Here are just five films you can watch on such a trip.

That’s why competitions, meetings, and various fun activities are offered to boys and girls. And on July 5, the Children’s and Youth Department of the library hosted a toy library “In 90 days of summer - around the world,” which was prepared by librarians N.V. Aksenov and M.M. Tsepkova.

Everyone loves to travel! And travel can be very different. Librarians offered the children a trip across countries and continents with books and their favorite writers.

Dumas, and get acquainted with distant America, taking part in the adventures of the heroes of M. Twain and F. Cooper, and even visit the distant North, where brave heroes from the works of J.
