Well it's almost here!!!! 6 weeks today we will be in Manchester, staying over for our flight on the Friday!!
I think I'm all sorted, booked all the tours, booked restaurants, sorted wine package, coffee package, ice cream package.
Just got to order the currency, and phone up airline for extra luggage allowance.
Phoned P&O today to see if any there is chance of an upgrade on the flight, but still nothing. Although she did say they know I am on the wait list.
Just started sorting clothes out, ordered my new knickers...and trying to to cut the amount of shoes down.
I am very excited, and a little apprehensive as it is years since we cruised. I just hope it still gives me the buzz it did.
Can't wait to be in this cabin, although we did have suites when we were on Arcadia and Oceana, I still love the look of this and the balcony :D image.jpegimage.jpeg
You'll need the extra space to store all those pants, Spuddy !

A fabulous Kurt Geiger silver sparkly clutch bag (an early birthday pressie from a very special friend, Thank You xxx) on the bed ready to go in suitcase..
Shoes.....well problem there...just how many do I take ??? How on earth do I choose???
All my jewellery and meds and make up sorted...
Just got to decide on what clothes to actually put in !!
EEEK !!!!!

Better late than never...!!!! Family commitments, elderly father in law, grand children..etc take priority on my time.
We had a wonderful cruise thank you, Azura ,was everything we wanted it to be.
From The Cliff Beach Club in Barbados.. WOW......to spending a few days in The Retreat...all the speciality reatuarants, our amazing balcony......it was sooo good. We did lots of tours, loved them all.
Flight was good, Luggage allowance was plenty...in fact the whole experience...was amazing.
We loved it all and it was great to be cruising again after such a long time.
We are looking to book another cruise soon... :D but with a different cruise line.
