The first 2 days onboard were spent at sea and after the partying from the day and night before I think everyone onboard was glad to be able to put their feet up for a short while and just relax. Although the Grand Event had been just that we are only human and a lazy…

Embarkation Day – The P&O Cruises Grand Event
Today started pretty early for me, 3.45am to be exact. I met my coach at 5.15am and we were on our way to Southampton. The trip down was as good as can be expected from a 7 hour journey. We made pretty good time, actually arriving early into Southampton by roughly 30 minutes or so….
A Grand Event
I am now onboard P&O Cruises Ventura looking forward to a damp but great Grand Event sailaway. The weather is pretty bleak but the atmosphere is electric. Everyone onboard Ventura at least is in good spirits. All seven ships are here, obviously! and soon each will set sail ready for the fleet review. My journey…

Fourteen Days Until The Grand Event
It is getting ever closer, there are now only 2 weeks left until the P&O Cruises Grand Event and obviously my cruise! Now comes the time when one must set aside non important tasks and focus on what really needs to be done. That would be ironing, buying more shoes, deciding whether to take 2…

I love that feeling of going on-board a ship for the first time. There’s anticipation and expectation that builds…
Cruise Countdown
My next cruise is so far turning into quite the social event. Not only will I be on one of the P&O Grand Event cruises but I am convincing more and more people to join me on it literally by the day! (I once again make my pledge for commission 😉 ) Although technically I…
Final Few Days Cruising
Days 9, 10 and 11 found us cruising the open ocean, back through the Mediterranean, the Gibraltar straight and back out into the Atlantic. I always enjoy sea days, more so in the summer months when you have a better chance of some very hot days. In this case though we couldn’t complain, we did have…
Barcelona, Spain – Day 8
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….
