For day 2 of our Royal Princess preview cruise, we were scheduled to be anchored off Guernsey. The weather forecast hadn’t been good with high winds and rough seas predicted. Sure enough, when I peered through the curtains in the morning the island was disappearing off our starboard side. An announcement had been made apparently…

Royal Princess Preview Cruise Part 1
For anyone interested in cruising, the announcement of a new cruise ship is certain to be an exciting thing. For a certified ship spotting cruise enthusiast, like myself, it is something else – especially when you learn that the new ship in question will be visiting your home port and that you’re going on it…
Total Eclipse Of The Heart With Celebrity Cruises
CruiseMiss guest blogger, Scott, recently embarked on his first cruise with Celebrity Cruises. This was his experience of Celebrity Eclipse. It’s no secret that I am a staunch Royal Caribbean, and in particular, Independence of the Seas fanatic. So I admit that it was with a little trepidation that I stepped out of my comfort…
The Perfect Lido Deck
During one of our recent twitter #CruiseChat hours the topic of discussion was cruise ship lido decks and what would essentially make your Lido deck perfect. 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…
Voyages to Antiquity
I am now back in the north of England after a fun and cruise filled weekend in London. As some of you know I spent the weekend at the Cruise Show. This is an event held once a year that allows the general public to come along and learn all there is to possibly know…

The 133,500 ton, 3,300 passenger vessel joined the MSC fleet in December of 2008 and was the first within her class. She was…
MSC Lirica Cruise Ship Visit
Well, I have not long left MSC Lirica, my second visit to this ship and once again she did not disappoint. This visit was far better than the last, we had longer to explore the ship which meant seeing places that were missed previously as well as also having the chance to see three different…
A Cruise is Never Boring
If there’s one thing I always look forward to about a cruise it’s the unexpected. I don’t think I have ever taken a cruise where something interesting or a little unusual didn’t happen. It’s difficult to an extent to try and explain this to you fully because to be honest I don’t really know how…
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…
Cruise Photography
With such advanced technology these days it is pretty difficult for any of us to go anywhere without a camera. Whether it be one built into your mobile telephone, a small digital camera or a larger more professional camera, either way we are rarely caught without one. For me, cruising and photography go hand in…
