Cruise Ship Jokes And Speedos

There are some things when it comes to cruising that just make us all laugh, well most of us anyway. From the comedians jokes to our own cruising mishaps or experiences there’s always something to get you smiling at some point. Today’s blog is a bit of a mix, some classic cruise jokes and some…

Don’t Get Left Behind

I enjoy shore excursion shopping especially if it is something I really want to do and there are two or three trip options that include it. For the most part I tend to book through the cruise line for many reasons but the main one being that if anything went wrong and we were delayed…

Homesick

Being back on dry land for a few weeks has now made me realise that booking a five week cruise probably wasn’t the brightest idea I have ever had, because now I have the worst cruise blues, ever! Actually I wouldn’t even call them cruise blues I think the more appropriate thing to say would…

Cruise Ships Galore

My most recent Caribbean cruise allowed me to visit some pretty beautiful islands and of course it was definitely a holiday I will remember, but it’s not just about the islands now is it……the other ships we pass on our travels are just as important as the stops we make….well for some of us anyway!…

Is P&O Cruises Oceana Haunted

Several months ago I spoke about haunted cruise ships and how I thought it would be exciting to investigate an old liner like the Queen Mary, In that blog I also mentioned of strange goings on aboard Oceana during my April 2012 cruise.

Caribbean Cruise St Maarten/ Sint Maarten

Caribbean Cruise Tortola

Caribbean Cruise Jamaica

In the words of Damian Marley, welcome to Jamrock! And what a warm welcome it was! When I first booked the cruise and told people our ports of call I kept hearing the same things over and over again about Jamaica. It’s not safe, don’t go anywhere unless you are in a group, try to…

Caribbean Cruise Cozumel

Ahhh Cozumel! The day that we had planned as a beach day and what happened, the Carnival Legend pulled up next door and it started raining! OK I can’t blame the Legend as it only rained briefly and it was still so muggy and warm it felt like you could barely breathe. We made our…

Caribbean Cruise Roatan

Roatan was the island I had been looking forward to the most so obviously it would rain torrentially for most of the day wouldn’t it but, that did not stop us enjoying our day. Before we left the UK I had booked a trip through the Shore Excursions Group who are based in Florida. It…
