Emerald Princess – First Impressions
Hello from Emerald Princess! This is my second full day aboard, so I thought now would be an ideal time to introduce you to this beautiful cruise ship. On first impressions she is very nice indeed and I haven’t even seen all of her yet! I have a balcony cabin on Baja Deck (Deck 11)…
Emerald Princess And The Canary Islands
In less than 2-weeks, I will be joining Princess Cruises, Emerald Princess, on a 11-night voyage down to the beautiful Canary Islands and I am hoping for two things – lots of sunshine and lots of good food! I am rather excited to experience Princess Cruises and I have heard many good things, and saying…
Oceana Canary Islands Cruise Part 2
Hello from the warm and sunny island of Gran Canaria! Since I last checked in with you we have visited Madeira and La Palma and so far we have certainly been lucky with hot sunshine. I have visited Madeira several times before so I didn’t have anything planned. I went ashore with a few people…
Don’t Get Left Behind

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!…
Madeira Cable Car
Well, I am back in the UK…….those five weeks went over a lot faster than I thought they would and I am already having cruise blues. As you know I blogged live from the ship but really, there was so much more I could have told you about each place so I decided I would…
Hello From Madeira
Hello! From a rather warm and sunny Funchal, Madeira. This is my third visit to Funchal and it never gets old. This is certainly one of the cleanest and greenest ports of call I have ever had the pleasure of visiting and today was no exception. We left Oceana at roughly 9am and made our…
Caribbean Port Planning
So my friend and I have been planning what to do on our upcoming cruise. Usually I don’t plan a lot to be honest, I just go with the flow when I get there unless there is something I really want to see, for example I really wanted to see the leaning Tower of Pisa,…
92 Days Until The Caribbean Adventure
My next cruise is booked, and if I said I was excited that would be a complete lie because I’m not, not even a tiny bit……OK OK I am LYING!!! I absolutely cannot wait. This cruise will be a 35-night round-trip Caribbean adventure from Southampton. Quite possibly the cruise and travel experience of a lifetime….
