Offers Amazing Vacation
Advertorial by Tova Roth
June 2, 2010--This summer from August
1-8 Kosherica, the family-run
glatt kosher cruise and tours
leader since 1992, invites you
to come aboard a luxurious
cruise ship to celebrate the
best of Jewish music for its
Jewish Music Festival at Sea,
featuring performances by
Dudu Fisher, Avraham Fried,
Lipa Schmeltzer, Cantor
Yitzchak Meir Helfgot and others.
The all-inclusive tour will
take you across the waters of
the Atlantic Ocean to Canada
and New England, with ports of
call in Bar Harbor, Maine, the
Bay of Fundy in New
Brunswick, and Halifax, Novia
Scotia. For the first time, the
ship will leave and return to
port in Bayonne, New Jersey,
allowing tristate-area residents
the convenience of a local port
of call.
The cruise offers daily
minyanim and shiurim by
Rabbi Steven Weil, executive
vice president of the OU, and
Stephen J. Savitsky, OU president.
Rabbi Weil, a gifted lecturer,
is the former rabbi of the
Young Israel of Oak Park,
Michigan, and of Beth Jacob
Congregation in Beverly Hills,
Calif. Mr. Savitsky travels widely
to Jewish communities in
North America and Israel,
bringing the OU’s message.
The Celebrity cruise ship
features a conservatory by a
world-renowned designer, an
impressive aqua spa and therapeutic
pool, steam rooms and
saunas, and fully equipped
gyms with the latest exercise
equipment and classes offered
every hour. Children will experience
hours of fun at The Fun
Factory Club, a supervised area
outfitted with a jogging track,
video arcade, and hours of
activities.
Kosherica’s food, as always,
will be top-notch, carefully prepared
to the highest caliber by
culinary teams trained by Chef
Arik Porat, of the Dan Arcadia
in Israel, under the directorship
of Offy Schiffman. All meat
dishes are glatt, and all dairy
dishes are chalav Yisrael.
Dishes will span international
cuisine, with fish and vegetarian
options for the entrée at
every meal; special requests
such as no salt or low fat will
be honored.
As for the cruise’s main
attraction, Jewish music will
permeate the air at every turn,
with concerts by Fisher, Fried
and Schmeltzer. And Cantors
Helfgot, Benzion Miller, and
Daniel Gildar will participate in
an exciting liturgical concert.
All the seaside stops on the
tour are rich in history, replete
with museums, lighthouses, art
galleries, and the rustic beauty
of nature, offering an extraordinary
experience on land to
complement your adventures
at sea.
