Read MoreNext month I’ll be sailing on Eclipse for 8 nights doing the 8 night Norwegian Fjords itinerary. I’m hoping for calmer seas than those I had on Divina a couple of years ago (Click here and scroll down a bit for the video I took of the pool!) The last time I was on […]

Read MoreAs promised, I’m here with lots of pictures from my cruise on NCL Epic. I really had a fantastic cruise and Epic is still one of my favourite ships. Everything is perfect. The crew are helpful and polite, the food is fantastic and the choice huge, the cabins and public areas are clean and bright […]
