Ruby Cruises

I’ve saved the best bit till last…….. We disembarked the Hurtigruten ‘Richard With’ at 11pm, had a one night post cruise stay at the ‘Radisson Blue’ hotel again in Tromso, and grabbed a few beers at the bar attached to the hotel.  We met some fantastic locals who were enjoying…

You know summer has officially arrived when it's time to get out your festival wellies. I'm heading down to Southampton tomorrow to board the luxury Red Funnel ferry to sail over to the Isle of Wight for the summer music festival.  Got a good line up again this year with…
