Sleeping Under The Stars
If there is one thing that I wish we could do now and then on board its sleep literally under the stars. Now I know logistically this is not possible for every single passenger to do but wouldn’t it be nice to have the option now and then? Imagine a hot summers evening whilst cruising…
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…

Onboard Action and Adventure
My little brain was ticking over yesterday and I thought to myself ‘I wonder why cruise lines don’t offer a bigger selection of ‘games’ on-board’. Now I know on some vessels it would be impossible to do some things but the mid-sized ships could easily offer a real life version of something like Cluedo (I…
