Day at Sea Then Buongiorno Italia – Day 5/6
Day 5 was a wonderful and SUNNY sea day! It was also the day when the upper half of my body would turn a nice burned red colour……ahhhh, no cruise would be complete without sunburn and so the fun began. Today was also the day of the infamous passengers Vs crew pool activities, always a…
Cartagena – Day 4

Although some things like don’t sit on the balcony rails or deck side rails seems pretty obvious you would probably be…
That First Cruise Feeling
I was told on the day I boarded for my first cruise voyage that it would be something I would never forget and that the ship would also hold a place in my heart forever, I laughed and smiled thinking “ok this lady is crazy, it’s a ship”, but I soon realised every word she…
Meet My Fellow Passengers
On almost every cruise you will come across at least one of the people I am about to mention. Whether it is a summer holiday cruise full of families with a more laid back atmosphere or a cruise slightly later in the season which may have an older clientele, you will meet one of them…
