It’s Almost Time For P&O Cruises Ventura

Counting Down To Ventura And The Mediterranean
It’s that time of year again, summer is almost upon us and so come the thoughts of some fun in the sun for 2 weeks. I have visited the Mediterranean on a cruise several times but I never tire of it. I love the atmosphere in countries like Italy and Spain during the summer months…
One Day A World Cruise
World Circumnavigation, those two words together send thousands of images shooting through my mind all at the same time.

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. Well, you guessed it! There were more strange happenings on Oceana and…
Caribbean Cruise St Maarten/ Sint Maarten
St Maarten sadly was our last Caribbean port of call but it ended with some fabulous weather! Our plan here had been to visit Maho Beach (also known as Airplane Beach) but our previous evening had actually gone on until 3.45 that morning so Maho had moved to the back of our minds slightly. We…
Caribbean Cruise Tortola
What a really pretty place this is, that was my reaction to Tortola. The sky was a little overcast but it still was very humid and you could just see the sun trying to escape through the clouds. Today we would embark on the Best of Tortola excursion and I couldn’t wait, I had been…
