16 Days To Go

Costa Crociere New Flagship Costa Diadema
I think it’s fair to say 2012 was not the year for Costa Crociere. In January 2012 the world was awoken by the sad news that the Costa Concordia and over 30 passengers and crew had been lost. Just several weeks later the Costa Allegra was left adrift after a fire onboard cut out all…

A Cruise With Friends
So with only 29 days left to go until the big Caribbean adventure the one thing at the moment I am looking forward to the most is seeing my friend again. I have not seen her since we left Oceana last December after our 24-night Eastern Mediterranean voyage and I can honestly say I have…

Cruise Ship Webcams
The cruise ship webcam, where would we be without it!? I think they are marvellous little touches and I look at a few almost on a daily basis. They are great for days like today when the weather outside at home is nothing short of miserable. We can simply log on and catch a glimpse…
