When it comes to staying safe ashore most challenging situations are often averted by using basic common sense. No matter where you go in the world sadly, there is crime to a degree and we must all remain vigilant even in the most stunning and peaceful of destinations. As cruise passengers we are already at…

Hurtigruten MS Fram
Yesterday I enjoyed the hospitality of Hurtigruten ship, MS Fram, whilst she was docked in Port of Tyne. That was once I found her of course. I knew she was small but as we drove towards the terminal I couldn’t see anything that resembled a ship. Finally she peeked out from behind the apartment building…
Norwegian Breakaway Arrives in Southampton
Norwegian Cruise Line’s newest vessel, Norwegian Breakaway, arrived in Southampton this morning and has certainly NOT disappointed her awaiting British audience. Next stop, New York City, but for now she remains docked in Southampton at the City Terminal and we are certainly enjoying having her here. She really does look wonderful and is jam packed…
Carnival Triumph The Unluckiest Ship At Sea
What is it with this cruise ship? She has been all over the news in recent months and not for the right reasons. Aside from Carnival Cruise Lines having some clear issues across numerous members of their fleet lately, I feel like the Carnival Triumph is being tested by the gods themselves! So let’s re-cap!…
Muster Drill Pick Up Lines
During last night’s weekly #CruiseChat on Twitter we were discussing solo cruising. It was quite a coincidence then that my blog yesterday was also about solo cruising. Once we moved away from the chat itself a new hashtag was created, #MusterDrillPickUps, a sort of side line tag where we could add quirky and stupid pick-up…
A Solo Cruise With MSC Cruises

My recent cruise with MSC Cruises on board MSC Magnifica, would also see me travelling solo but the experience as a solo traveller…
MSC Magnifica A Day At Sea
Today we should have spent the day ashore in Helgoland but sadly our call had to be cancelled. It is a tender port and by the time we reached our position of anchor our Captain, Antonio Siviero, made the decision to cancel due to the force 7 winds and a wave height of 2-3 metres….
MSC Magnifica Day 2 Hamburg
Yesterday I enjoyed the hospitality of Hamburg, Germany as MSC Cruises, MSC Magnifica sailed us into our next port of call. We didn’t arrive until 10.30am so it was the perfect excuse to have a short lie in and not worry about rushing up and off the ship. When I finally dragged myself out of…
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…
