Today marks the start of our transatlantic crossing. We have another 4 days ahead of us until we reach the Caribbean and the best part about those days, we have to gain a few extra hours over the course of them which means extra sleep 😉 Our paper told us yesterday that today would be…

Hello From Madeira
Hello! From a rather warm and sunny Funchal, Madeira. This is my third visit to Funchal and it never gets old. This is certainly one of the cleanest and greenest ports of call I have ever had the pleasure of visiting and today was no exception. We left Oceana at roughly 9am and made our…
One More Sleep
Happy New Year everyone! I trust many of you will still be celebrating, others are probably lying on the sofa hoping the ground will open up and swallow them because they over done the bubbles! 😉 I on the other hand am wading through bags of clothes and this shall be my last blog post…
Sick Of Norovirus
Today’s blog is more a rant than anything else, some will agree others will strongly disagree but this is just my opinion…………….. It seems that Norovirus is doing the rounds again, this time the Queen Mary 2 has taken the spotlight and just a few weeks back it was P&O Cruises, Oriana, being slaughtered by…
Animal Spotting
As much as I enjoy the excitement of new lands and historical monuments I also like to see and where possible interact with wildlife I would rarely come across at home unless visiting a zoo.

Onboard Entertainment
When it comes to cruising, the entertainment is one thing I don’t really pay much attention too, unless the act is a comedian as I have said before I tend to stay away. I am more than happy making my own entertainment and to be honest I don’t want to be sitting in a theatre…
Can’t Wait To See Oceana
So the Caribbean adventure is a mere 13 days away, where has the time gone?! I feel like I only booked the cruise yesterday and all of a sudden here it is and I am beyond un-prepared! I keep telling myself I must start sorting things out and packing but then I get sidetracked by…
Freighter Cruise
Let’s take a cruise to historical and truly hypnotising lands. Let’s explore the flavour and culture of the Middle East, the history and fast pace of life that is Asia or even enjoy the delicious atmosphere of the Mediterranean, let’s go to them all on a cruise……..a freighter cruise. Yes they are out there and…
16 Days To Go
I woke up this morning staring at my suitcase and thought to myself WOW……in 16 days I am going to be embarking on such an amazing trip! I lay for a little longer just thinking about what’s to come and how lucky my friend and I are that we can take time out to do…
