So having been back home for a couple of weeks we are back on the road agin heading off to the airport (Faro) to catch a plane back to the UK and meet up with the rest of the gang before heading off to Fort Lauderdale Florida and that start of a 2 month set of holiday trips, the first being a Cruise leaving on the 26th for 11 nights. Today we will end up at the Premier Inn at the North Terminal at Londons Gatwick airport which is where…
Read MoreIn the lounge finally after the worst check in experience. The terminal is rammed. Anyway all settled in now waiting to board. So after a 9 hour flight we finally arrived in Fort Lauderdale we had to wait 30 minutes for the shuttle but eventually rocked up at the 4 Points Sheraton and all of us had a quick shower and headed to the hotels restaurant. We all had a cheese burger which was actually really nice. One more thing the measures were insane, check out the picture with Paul.…
Read MoreToday we have a full day in Fort Lauderdale having woke up at 1:30am this morning (Thanks Jet Lag) and again at 4:45 with noisy family leaving the hotel, its going to be a long day. The girls are going shopping this morning and the guys might watch the last F1 race of the season if we can find a TV with it on this morning, later in the day we went down to Fort Lauderdale Beach and a bar Lorna and me have been to before It was called…
Read MoreWell we all slept well last night and were up nice and early again ready for todays departure and the start of our 11 night cruise. We were getting picked up at 11:15 so we had plenty of time to have breakfast and sort out our luggage, we even had time to catch up with “Im a celebrity”. The trip to the cruise port was very quick and we got there and onboard for about midday. We couldn’t get into our rooms straight away, so we headed up to deck…
Read MoreHey guys not much to report today as we are at sea on our way to the Caymans. Weather today has been a mixture of sun and rain, so today was spent mostly diving out of the rain getting a few drinks and then rushing out to the sun deck to secure 6 sun loungers and then repeat. Most of today was spent avoiding the bad weather, the crazy thing was that it is still really hot but the rain made it impossible to stay out on deck, so when…
Read MoreGood morning all so today is our first full day at a port of call and today that is Grand Cayman, we arrived early this morning whilst we were all asleep and got the message we could get off the ship quite early, so we decided to let the mad exodus happen and then we would get off later which we did after breakfast, not all of us ate in the main restaurant today and we were all ready to leave by about 10am, We had learnt that due to…
Read MoreToday is a full day at sea en-route to Columbia. So not much to do today apart from eat and drink and sunbath up on deck, the weather today is much better but very windy which makes sun bathing quite nice but dangerous as a few of us are going to tell later after the wind burn and red faces, namely me. So far a nice and easy day today so much so that we were all back in our rooms today by 3pm chilling out on the balcony and…
Read MoreThis morning we awoke in the Port San Pedro in Columbia and it was a early start for us, we did think it would be an even earlier one, as there were rumours that we might have put the clocks forward last night but fortunately we didn’t, so the 7am early rise this morning was not as bad as we thought it could have been. We were going on a Celebrity arranged tour of the old and new towns and we met at 8:30 and boarded the tour bus. Now…
Read MoreThis morning we were not going to wake up in a port but later today at around 4pm we were going to arrive in Aruba and we will be staying there overnight and staying there until 5pm the following day. So with that in mind nobody was in any rush to get up early today and some of us didn’t even make breakfast. This was mainly due to the fact that we booked a speciality restaurant for lunch today at 1pm as we were going on a excursion on a…
Read MoreGood morning, evening, whatever folks, well today was a nice start to the day, we all slept really well mainly because we were in the port all night and the ship was dead still, the only thing we did get was a few fire/police siren’s which we were not used too. But anyway this morning we were going to the beach, weather permitting. Now this weather thing seems to have been a bit of an issue, each day presents us with a uncertain outcome, but so far we have been…
