It’s A Cruise Ship Life
I came across some content a little while ago that is aimed towards crew members. It’s from the “Working on Cruise Ships” Facebook page, but the more I read, the more I found things that passengers could also relate too. I have noted some of them down for you as they made me laugh and…
Life After A Cruise Is Rubbish, We All Feel It!
Have you ever noticed that after a cruise, especially if it is a long one, you struggle to get back into the simple things we do day in day out in life? Like making the bed, such a chore to do again when someone has done it for you for several weeks yet you managed…
P&O Cruises Ventura The Retreat
When I first heard that The Retreat was to be introduced on board Ventura I was a little apprehensive but excited at the same time. I had heard many mixed reviews about The Retreat on board sister ship, Azura. Some liked it and some loathed it so it would be interesting to see what reaction…
Royal Princess Preview Cruise Part 2

Exploring And A Change Of Itinerary
At present we are sailing through the Mediterranean Sea en route to our last port of call. There were a few white horses out there last night, nothing too drastic but enough gentle movement to remind you that you are in fact on a ship in the middle of the sea. Wonderful! Since my last…
Monte Carlo And Eze
Yesterday we spent the day in good old Monaco. This was in fact my fifth visit to Monte Carlo and before leaving for the cruise I decided it would be nice to do a tour here this time and take in a little more of what this beautiful and very rich port has to offer….
And Then There Was Land
We had three sea days at the beginning of the cruise before reaching our first port. I love sea days, the weather wasn’t too great on the first two but it’s got steadily warmer and brighter by the day. Our first port was Valencia and today we have enjoyed Barcelona. During our time in Valencia…
