As much as I wish I had been on every cruise ship on the planet I am sorry to say I haven’t, it’s still very much a work in progress. There are some ships I am really looking forward to trying but for specific facilities or features, I would love to cruise on them of…

Cruise Ship Engineering
In a previous blog post (Learning About Your Cruise Ship) I touched on things like Azipods, Ballast Tanks and even commented on some phrases you may hear used whilst onboard. In today’s blog however I wanted to take it a little further into how your ship actually works and what goes on behind the scenes….
Something A Little Extra
There are probably a thousand things I could think of that cruise ships don’t have that they should. I’m not talking about anything big and extravagant I mean simple things that could actually enhance a guests experience or just make some things a little easier. As an example, some ports of call offer some pretty…
Learning About Your Cruise Ship
It’s not only the experiences from cruising that I am beyond passionate about, it of course is the ship too, but even beyond that I enjoy learning more about the workings of the ship upon which I sail. I don’t know everything and if honest I don’t understand everything either but it doesn’t stop me…
Will I Get Seasick
The short answer………….NO! It may not be the most pleasant thing in the world to discuss but when it comes to a cruise it for many people can be a big part of pre-cruise worry and stress whilst onboard. Not everyone gets or will get seasick but the more you think about it the more…

There are many music cruises available now too, with P&O Cruises Music Festivals at sea, The music infused Blue Man Group onboard Norwegian Epic and even the Rock Cruises that…
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…
A Love Affair With Royal Caribbean
They say biggest isn’t always best, but for me, when it comes to cruise ships, I think I am of the opinion that, actually, it is. In my relatively short cruising history I admit I have only cruised on one ship. It is no coincidence then that she happens to be one of the biggest,…
Grand Event Cruise – Venice
Today was the port of all port’s and an early one too! I dragged myself away from the comfort of my queen sized bed and made my way out onto the open decks to watch our sail into Venice. The decks were jam packed, everyone clearly wanted to catch the first glimpse of this amazing…
