My Cruise Ship Frown Lines

I ramble on and on every day almost about how wonderful cruising is, it is the be all and end all in life. If it’s not about cruising then I quite frankly don’t want to know but, sometimes, some things on board do get up my nose and I may just show those forehead frown…

All Pets Aboard

I came across a video yesterday by Cunard Line of Britain’s Got Talent winners Ashleigh & Pudsey, who sailed back to the UK from America on board the QM2. It was a great little video and Pudsey really seemed to enjoy his time on board.   It made me think more about our pets, especially…

Cruising, it never gets Tiresome

Each and every one of us has aspects of a cruise experience that we never get tired of. It could be the fact you wake up in an entirely new destination each morning or the fact you can eat around the clock and not have to cook any of it yourself. There are many reasons…

A Blast From Cruise Ship’s Past

Today is a very special photograph blog, a blast from the cruise ship past. Some cruise ships have been sold many times, often found themselves with many names. We take a look at just some of them that have been sold and re-named over the years. Some have been re-named many times, for example what…

Haunted Cruise Ships

When it comes to hauntings and spooky goings on I always keep an open mind, ok that’s a bare faced lie I don’t. If I hear anything go bump in the night I automatically think it is a visit from the other side and start to panic. It got me thinking though after watching Ghost…

When we pack for our cruise adventures we leave home sometimes with the entire contents of our lives packed into our ever expanding suitcases, I think the only thing I leave behind quite literally is the kitchen sink. We always pack far too much, don’t say you don’t because you know and I know you…

Cruising For Mischief

Cruise Photography

With such advanced technology these days it is pretty difficult for any of us to go anywhere without a camera. Whether it be one built into your mobile telephone, a small digital camera or a larger more professional camera, either way we are rarely caught without one. For me, cruising and photography go hand in…

Virtual Cruising

The recent blog about being a cruise addict, along with the one for the excellent Ship Mate apps got me thinking about e-Cruising – or should that be i-Cruising or maybe even Virtual Cruising? There are a multitude of websites out there for cruise enthusiasts and not all of them are going to cost you…
