Something New For David
This year for the first time ever we discussed staying at home as we have started to do a lot of home Improvements. However me being me and talking to my lovely clients all day, this decision became more and more difficult. So moaning and groaning to my husband we decided to take a late break somewhere.
Selling lots of river cruises as I do, I knew THE RIVER CRUISE LINE had a lot of deals at the end of July this year so I booked us one of their trips. We are going to be going on the SWITZERLAND 11. Starting from Cologne in Germany. Our trip will begin in Leicestershire where we live, we are going to be picked up from the local service station on the M1 by coach and driven down to the Port in Dover.
Then it will a ferry over to Calais and re-join our coach for the onward journey and to join our ship for a week. Now this is the first time my husband has ever taken a river cruise holiday- im hoping he will enjoy it it is something totally different for him he likes the big ocean cruise liners which hold 3000 people with casino’s, dancing show girls etc, so this is going to something completely different for him..
