As I mentioned yesterday my friend and I have booked our first shore excursion for our Caribbean cruise. It’s our first booked with the cruise line but we do already have one other day arranged that we will be doing on our own. Nachi Cocom Beach Resort in Cozumel, Mexico. It comes highly recommended and…

Jamaica Jeep Safari
I booked one of our cruise excursions earlier, a 4×4 Jeep Safari in Jamaica. It was a pretty instantaneous decision. As soon as my friend and I read the information we were decided, we had to do it! This is what it read: The best way to see the island of Jamaica is by 4×4. Experience…
Caribbean Port Planning
So my friend and I have been planning what to do on our upcoming cruise. Usually I don’t plan a lot to be honest, I just go with the flow when I get there unless there is something I really want to see, for example I really wanted to see the leaning Tower of Pisa,…
Cruise Ships in The Caribbean
As I mentioned in yesterday’s post I am mid way through planning a 35 night Caribbean cruise which leaves next January. My friend and I are making good head way on what to do whilst we are ashore but it was inevitable I would also see which other ships would be in. If I am…
Travel Travel and More Travel
I’m not entirely sure where my travel passion came from. I have been fortunate enough to experience a holiday just about every year since I was a toddler (obviously I can’t remember them all but my mother assures me that she took me!) however, it has only been the last 24 months I would say…
Travel And The Simple Things

Today was our final port of call, finally the sun was shining and it was and hot day in Barcelona. We woke early in order to get off more or less as soon as the ship had docked; today was the day I wanted to get off and then back to soak up some sun….
Cannes, France – Day 7
Today we awoke from our slumber anchored just off the coast of Cannes, France. I never get bored with these tender ports, especially the ones on the French Riviera, they are breath taking. Although Cannes is wonderful I think my favourite would have to be Villefranche, simply beautiful. So as mentioned it is a tender…
Day at Sea Then Buongiorno Italia – Day 5/6
Day 5 was a wonderful and SUNNY sea day! It was also the day when the upper half of my body would turn a nice burned red colour……ahhhh, no cruise would be complete without sunburn and so the fun began. Today was also the day of the infamous passengers Vs crew pool activities, always a…
Cartagena – Day 4
Today we arrived in beautiful Cartagena on the South Eastern coast of Spain. I was quite excited about this port as out of all our destinations it was the only place I had never in fact visited before. I wasn’t sure what to expect or what the local area would be like so I was…
