New Ships for Cunard & Azamara!
So today we have learned that Cunard will be adding another Queen to it’s fleet but not until 2022….. I wonder what this new ship will be like and if they may go for a more modern look as the original Queens are very traditional in style & decor. The yet-to-be-named ship will carry 3,000 […]
Read MoreDevastation in the Caribbean
As we all know hurricane Irma hit the Caribbean with vengeance and caused major damage to multiple islands. My thoughts and prayers go out to those affected. Barbuda was one of the worst hit and is now ‘barely inhabitable’ and practically rubble. Tortola – Road Town, 5 people lost their lives here. Homes, schools, offices, […]
Read MoreCruising ‘The Broads’
So I have just returned last week from my short break on The Norfolk Broads, it was lovely. I have done this holiday a few times before and always enjoy it and this time was no different – we had a great time! We traveled down to Stalham to pick up the boat, traffic was […]
Read MoreHoliday Time!
Whilst you are reading this I will be cruising on the Norfolk Broads. It is 7 years since we have done this kind of holiday, we went in July 2010 and took my daughter Kim & her friend Hannah but she doesn’t want to come this time as an adult now and will go away […]
Read MoreCheck in early!
A few reports have been around that overseas airports are struggling with the amount of passengers passing through their airports this summer…. What is the cause though? Too few staff to cope. More checks being done for security. People not arriving on time for check-in. Self check-in machines not working. There is so much speculation […]
Read MoreTravel Insurance is a MUST!
We all like our yearly or twice yearly holiday, some of us have more holidays & cruises than others BUT however many you take you MUST have travel insurance. I have heard so many horror stories about people who haven’t taken insurance or taken out the proper cover for their particular holiday. It can be […]
Read MoreLovely Lisbon!
On my recent trip on board Oceania Insignia we visited Lisbon as we were docked there overnight. I have been to Lisbon before but was 12 years ago on a cruise but didn’t see as much as I did this time. We had breakfast at The Terrace Cafe of course and then met most of […]
Read MoreOutstanding Oceania Food!
Let me tell you about the food on board Oceania Insignia… Where do I start? That is the question as it was all amazing. First of all breakfast on ‘The Terrace Cafe’ was amazing, sitting outside at the rear of the ship (through the buffet restaurant) – a great selection of food for breakfast. My […]
Read MoreAll Aboard Insignia!
Last week I was lucky enough to be sent to see the Oceania Insignia, myself and my colleague Gail were to spend 3 nights on board this beautiful ship. This was the 180 day world voyage from the USA so we got to experience this luxury cruise line which I had wanted to try for […]
Read MoreSilversea – was not meant to be!
On Monday 22 May I was booked to go on a ship visit of the ‘Silver Whisper’ by Silversea Cruises. We get invited to see ships all the time but do them on our days off as too busy to take time out of a working week. That’s how dedicated I am to see as […]
