Eastbound Transatlantic Voyage Aboard Queen Mary 2
As my two incredible weeks in America came to an end, it was time to once again head for the Brooklyn Cruise Terminal and say a big hello to Queen Mary 2. As much as I love to be on ships, the sight of her on August 9th was bittersweet. I knew she was waiting…
Westbound Transatlantic Voyage Aboard Queen Mary 2
I boarded Queen Mary 2 in Southampton on July 17, and we are currently steaming west across the North Atlantic towards New York City – in fact, we are almost there! I can’t begin to tell you how excited I am for our arrival in the Big Apple, but first let me tell you all…
Cunard Westbound Transatlantic Countdown
It’s almost time to begin my Cunard and American road trip adventure and I’m so excited that I had to do another pre-cruise blog. I’ve never sailed on Queen Mary 2 before, but I did visit her once in Greenock in Scotland. As soon as I stepped aboard I felt like I had been taken…
Cunard And An American Road Trip
My next big trip of 2016 is just a few weeks away (26-days to be exact!), so I wanted to start telling you about it – I’ve not mentioned it much, but as the planning stages are almost complete, it’s definitely time to share! I’ll be joining the newly refurbished Queen Mary 2 on July…

Azamara Quest Exits Drydock
Azamara Quest, the first of Azamara Club Cruises’ twin boutique ships to undergo refurbishment, has emerged from an 8-day drydock – complete with a refresh of all public spaces and staterooms and a new “Azamara Blue” hull. Named for the cruise line by Navantia Shipyard, the unique navy-blue colour tone of Azamara Quest’s hull adds…
Save The SS United States
I was approached recently via the CruiseMiss facebook page regarding helping to spread the word about the SS United States and the need for people just like you to help save her. America’s flagship, the SS United States was a military powerhouse designed as a luxury liner. Larger than the Titanic and at almost a…
The Authentic Cunard Cruise Line
I sometimes do wish we could go back in time and experience “pleasure liners” from yesteryear. Go back to when cruising was not quite so commercialised or in some cases a little over the top with facilities. Can you imagine having the chance to board the Mauretania or the Lusitania back when they were in…
