It’s hard to believe that the last 4 entries were just 2 days! The whole point of this holiday was to sit by a pool or beach and do...

Where did we leave it… Oh yes ‘Watch This!’ When we saw the 4x4 part of the tour this was more of what we expected. Jill was loving it...

I initially thought the guide was joking when he said reception would phone our rooms at 4am, he wasn’t. I suppose it stopped any excuses...

After lunch and the Berber village we headed for Douz which is known as ‘The Gateway to the Sahara’. It’s an oasis but as usual Hollywood...

I’d set our alarm for 5am as we need to be down at reception for pick up for 6:30 where apparently they’d have coffee and pastries...

We’ve not been ‘feeling’ this holiday. Normally we’re looking at things to do, changing up holiday money (this always gets the holiday...

Day 12. Today we were in Panama which in a surprise move is actually a country not just a canal or a hat. It was also the day I got my...

Today we were in Jamaica and initially we hadn’t booked a tour for this stop and thought we'd just have a wander around Montego Bay

Day 2: Our first stop was the Cayman Islands, famous for being a rat hole for the rich. We weren't really expecting much from this stop...

Storm Isha raged across the UK the night before we left for Gatwick airport. For anyone who’s read my stuff before it’s quite normal to...

I mentioned in an earlier post that you go to Northern Europe for the scenery and Southern Europe for the culture (and the scenery as...

I woke up about 5 and went to get a coffee and walked straight into an amazing view and predawn glow. During the night the ship had...

Our arrival time in Stavanger was scheduled for 9am. Before this you sail along the Norwegian coastline. We got to see a fair bit of this...

We were woken, rather symbolically, by deck chairs being rearranged on the deck above us. Neither of us had had a particularly good...
