It’s been a few days since my last blog and so much has been happening that I don’t know where to begin on telling you all about it. It’s just fun, fun and more fun on this ship! We called at Vigo and then yesterday Lisbon. At present we are on our way to Bilbao…

A Day At Sea Italian Style
At present we are sailing through the Bay of Biscay en-route to our next port of call, Vigo. The weather this morning was a little on the grey side but as the day has progressed the sun has broken through the clouds and is giving us all a true sunshine filled cruise. So far it…
Getting To Know MSC Opera
It’s a beautiful day aboard MSC Opera! The sun is shining, there are fun and games around the pool and everyone onboard seems to be having a great time! We don’t arrive at St Peter Port until 2pm and as it’s a tender port we each have a specific time slot, mine being at 3.15pm…
No Carnival On This Cruise – Triumph, Dream and Legend Face Technical Issues
It’s not really been a great few weeks for Carnival Cruise Line. It started with the Carnival Triumph just over a month ago when an engine room fire crippled the vessel and left her adrift for four days. The chaos played out across all news platforms for what felt like an eternity until the ship…

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…
Four Weeks Until The Grand Event Cruise
There are exactly 4 weeks to go now until my next cruise and the excitement is definitely starting to build. As it is part of the P&O Cruises Grand Event, which is going to be spectacular (I hope) I can’t quite decide if I am more excited for the cruise or the Southampton sail away….
Day at Sea and the Gibraltar Approach – Day 2/3
Day 2 was finally the start of the weather starting to calm down. Although not exactly red hot the sun did briefly come out and it was pleasant walking around on the open decks (when the wind didn’t blow you off your feet of course) we were finally on our way into the warmer waters…
What NOT To Do On A Cruise Ship
Everyone always talks about things you should do on a cruise (and I’m probably the worst culprit) but maybe we should also touch on things you should definitely NOT do whilst on a cruise. Although some things like don’t sit on the balcony rails or deck side rails seems pretty obvious you would probably be…
