Cortisol is produced and secreted by the adrenal glands. Production of the hormone is regulated by the hypothalamus in the brain and by the pituitary gland, a tiny organ located below the brain.
Cruise lines that operate private islands: Celebrity Cruises, Costa Cruises, Disney Cruise Line, Holland America Line, Princess Cruises and Royal Caribbean International. Disney Cruise Line calls at its private island, Castaway Cay, on itineraries from Port Canaveral.
On a recent Carnival cruise I did with my sister, we stopped at Half Moon Cay â the private island in the Bahamas that Carnival and Holland America share. We splurged on a Half Moon Cay Cabana Rental and it was worth every penny. Read on to see why! The Half Moon Cay Cabana Rental is considered a Shore Excursion, and must be purchased in advance. Since the number of cabanas on the island is limited to fifteen, I recommend booking this excursion as far in advance of your cruise as possible. No worries though if you canât snag one.
