First and foremost my sincere apologies for the title of today’s blog, I was kind of “in the moment” and just couldn’t help myself! Anyway, here’s the reading bit…………….. Tomorrow is the big day! Finally I shall find myself back on board P&O Cruises, Ventura. It’s been 11 months since I was last on board…

It’s Almost Time For P&O Cruises Ventura
Well there are just 5 more days to go before I join P&O Cruises, Ventura for a 2 week Mediterranean cruise, and after all the sun we have been having in the UK, I can’t wait! (Slogan pun not intended but pretty hard to avoid) The good weather at home always makes me think more…
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…
P&O Cruises Ventura Refurbishment
A multi-million pound refurbishment has been carried out to Ventura to incorporate features which have proved popular with passengers on sister ship Azura. Successful concepts from Azura, such as The Glasshouse, The Retreat, menus designed by Michelin -star chef Atul Kochhar in speciality restaurant East and single cabins have all been introduced on board Ventura….
Facebook Favourites
I recently mentioned on the CruiseMiss facebook page that I wanted to know what everyone’s favourite cruise ship was. I thought I may get a few people drop the odd note but instead people embraced it and went crazy with it! In all there were over 100 comments and some ships kept making an appearance…

On my most recent cruise I travelled alone, well, sometimes. See, I booked the cruise for myself but had arranged to meet friends onboard who were also doing the same cruise. Although I don’t feel like I can comment 100% accurately on what cruising on your own is like I feel there are some aspects…
Fjords Cruise A Final Day On-Board
By morning the sea and wind had abated somewhat but the day started grey with drizzle in the air. A final breakfast in the Waterside would also be our discovery that fresh omelette’s were available along with pancakes and other goodies. Oh well, something to be tried another time maybe! A leisurely morning ensued and…
Fjords Cruise A Day On Board
Stepping out onto the balcony we were greeted this morning with a much more cosmopolitan city-scape that was Bergen. The weather was noticeably colder and again unfortunately grey and wet. We later learned that Bergen proclaims to be the wettest place in Europe and it was certainly living up to that title! We were docked…
Fjords Cruise Flam
We woke to find the overnight wind had eased slightly and the horizontal rain was now just isolated showers, so we headed off to explore. Although quite a small place, Flam is spectacular with brightly coloured wooden lodge like buildings, set against a back drop of sheer faced mountains and, courtesy of the heavy overnight…
Fjords Cruise Skjolden
An early start saw me pulling the curtains to see the silhouette of jagged and towering mountainsides a stone’s throw from the balcony. Despite the drifting banks of fog, occasional glimpses of the awe inspiring scenery whetted the appetite for the day to come. A quick breakfast in the Waterside buffet restaurant was in order….
