I joined MSC Cruises MSC Magnifica yesterday morning and so far I am very impressed. Check-in was swift and I was shown personally to my cabin, I really liked this touch! I walked through the door and was greeted with a rather nice balcony cabin and queen sized bed. Yes I have all of this…

DFDS Seaways To Amsterdam
Hello from Amsterdam!! Yesterday was the start of another exciting adventure but this time with a twist. There is a cruise involved but I actually started my journey aboard DFDS Seaways, Princess Seaways. She sailed me overnight to Amsterdam where I am staying until tomorrow morning. I checked-in at 3.30pm and was soon on board…

MSC Magnifica Awaits
On Monday I am heading to Amsterdam where I am spending a day before joining MSC Cruises, MSC Magnifica, for a 3 night cruise to Hamburg and Helgoland, both in Germany.

There were some good responses from people involved when it came to the question ‘if you could re-name the Lido deck then what would you call it’. Answers included…
Bird’s Eye Cruise Ship View
We spend hours looking through pictures of cruise ships, I do anyway! Not only my own but those that have filled cruise websites on the internet. They are the usual holiday snaps are funny pictures where someone is trying to eat the ship, or something along those crazy lines. I love these types of pictures,…
The Deck Chairs Strike Again
I can honestly say with hand on my heart that I am not a taker of the mick when it comes to sun loungers. The longest I ever leave the lounger for is 30 minutes and it’s usually to either grab something to eat or simply give my legs some exercise for a moment. Sun…
Food Glorious Food
Have you ever eaten a meal onboard that left such a delicious lasting impression you decided to re-create it at home? I am sure there are a fair few of us who have but less of us that would then admit it didn’t quite go to plan. Well to be honest not going to plan…
