Hi all,
just chatting over dinner this evening regarding coming home from a break in Lisbon in 2006. A disastrous journey home, as we landed at Gatwick early evening and we were catching the train to Harpenden. Unfortunately 'ongoing engineering works' meant we had to get across London by Tube and when we got to Thameslink, there was a problem as a poor soul had jumped onto the line further down the track. On the platform we got talking to another couple who were on their way home from a cruise and I commented that I had thought about cruising, but wasn't sure it was 'our thing'! They said they loved the way you take your hotel room with you, and you join in as much or as little as you want. Well, that got us thinking and the next year we booked on Splendour OTS out of Venice for 7 days (in case we didn't like it
) and the rest is history. I know many of you have been cruising for a long time, but what started you?
