The next morning we awoke to find ourselves winding our way down the even more spectacular Geirangerfjord. As promised by the officers in Flam, the sun was still beating down on the ship with only the occasional wispy white cloud obscuring the perfect blue sky. Another perk of being in a suite was the invite…

Celebrity Eclipse in Flam
We woke early the day we arrived in Flam as we had booked the Flamsbana mountain train excursion with Celebrity Cruises before we sailed. We had visited Flam the year before, unexpectedly making an overnight stopover due to bad weather preventing us from getting to Geiranger as planned. The station is only a stone’s throw…
Celebrity Eclipse In Bergen
It’s time to once again let guest blogger, Scott take the helm as he brings you his recent Norwegian Fjords voyage aboard Celebrity Eclipse. Having only got off Celebrity Eclipse from a 14 night med cruise three months before, it was something of a special treat to be going to sea again so soon. I’d…
Total Eclipse Of The Heart With Celebrity Cruises
CruiseMiss guest blogger, Scott, recently embarked on his first cruise with Celebrity Cruises. This was his experience of Celebrity Eclipse. It’s no secret that I am a staunch Royal Caribbean, and in particular, Independence of the Seas fanatic. So I admit that it was with a little trepidation that I stepped out of my comfort…
A Simple Evening At Sea
We were sailing through the Mediterranean Sea, the sun was just starting to set and I had the entire deck to myself. This is the life, I thought. Nothing but ocean for miles around, no noise and nothing spoiling the view. It’s a feeling that never gets old. On this particular evening it was warm…
Cruise Ship Stowaway
There are numerous creatures, great and small, that land on our cruise ships as we sail the seven seas. In my time I have come across quite a few different stowaways in all shapes and sizes and some were enough to make your toes curl! The most common for us all is the pigeon, I…
MSC Magnifica Balcony Cabin
Today I want to share with you my MSC Magnifica cabin, that’s it! Nothing else, just the cabin! I found myself on Deck 12, PortoVenere deck and in cabin number 12062 on the ship’s Starboard side. I walked through the door and thought to myself, this is all for ME? Oh why thank you, MSC…
Caribbean Cruise St Maarten/ Sint Maarten
St Maarten sadly was our last Caribbean port of call but it ended with some fabulous weather! Our plan here had been to visit Maho Beach (also known as Airplane Beach) but our previous evening had actually gone on until 3.45 that morning so Maho had moved to the back of our minds slightly. We…
Caribbean Cruise Tortola
What a really pretty place this is, that was my reaction to Tortola. The sky was a little overcast but it still was very humid and you could just see the sun trying to escape through the clouds. Today we would embark on the Best of Tortola excursion and I couldn’t wait, I had been…
Caribbean Cruise Cozumel
Ahhh Cozumel! The day that we had planned as a beach day and what happened, the Carnival Legend pulled up next door and it started raining! OK I can’t blame the Legend as it only rained briefly and it was still so muggy and warm it felt like you could barely breathe. We made our…
