We’ve called to Turkey, Greece, Italy and Spain since I last checked in with you and I didn’t really do much in any of the ports. I’ve had so much writing to catch up on and because I decided to buy half of Asia, I’ve been trying to sort out my cases and decide what…

Arrivederci MSC Opera
It’s almost that time again, disembarkation day! Today we have enjoyed Le Havre and are in port until 9pm, but tomorrow shall see us once again back in Southampton where one must leave MSC Opera behind. I have to say this cruise has been fantastic! I didn’t anticipate for one second before I left that…
Coming Up Next MSC Opera
I think the entire cruising universe is aware by now that I can’t stay ashore for too long, once the ship’s start calling I have to answer! With that said I thought now would be a good time to let you know about my next adventure! At the end of August I will be boarding…
Counting Down To Ventura And The Mediterranean
It’s that time of year again, summer is almost upon us and so come the thoughts of some fun in the sun for 2 weeks. I have visited the Mediterranean on a cruise several times but I never tire of it. I love the atmosphere in countries like Italy and Spain during the summer months…
Shore Excursion Gone Wrong
With today’s blog comes my request to you that, when on organised excursions, just make a mental note of those sitting around you so that if the guide were to miss-count you can shout out that someone is missing. Had someone done that for my friend her day may have been very different. In 2008…
Cruising, it never gets Tiresome
Each and every one of us has aspects of a cruise experience that we never get tired of. It could be the fact you wake up in an entirely new destination each morning or the fact you can eat around the clock and not have to cook any of it yourself. There are many reasons…
Grand Event Cruise – Vigo
Today we found ourselves in Vigo, Spain, and it was to be our last port of call. Vigo again was a place I had visited many times before however, this time, it seemed a little different. Our captain announced that a lot of money had been spent regenerating the port here and I could actually…
Grand Event Cruise – Palma de Mallorca
Another port, another glorious sunny day. Welcome to Palma, one of the most popular destinations in the Balearic Islands for British holiday makers. This was my 4th visit here by cruise ship but previously I have had many a land based holiday here and in the nearby towns of Palma Nova and Magaluf. Palma is…
Barcelona, Spain – Day 8
Today was our final port of call, finally the sun was shining and it was and hot day in Barcelona. We woke early in order to get off more or less as soon as the ship had docked; today was the day I wanted to get off and then back to soak up some sun….
Cartagena – Day 4
Today we arrived in beautiful Cartagena on the South Eastern coast of Spain. I was quite excited about this port as out of all our destinations it was the only place I had never in fact visited before. I wasn’t sure what to expect or what the local area would be like so I was…
