Tapas y Tinto de Verano
I read an article on one of the cruise pages recently about food on a cruise, either on a ship or in port and it got me thinking about the whole experience of food and travel I discovered Tinto de Verano quite by chance when I did a solo trip to Madrid a few years…
A Grand Day in Grand Turk
Not in the Caribbean, but often on a Caribbean cruise, the tiny Atlantic island of Grand Turk is an unspoilt gem which captivates me as a space nerd, an artist and a tourist! In 1962 Astronaut John Glenn splashed down just off the coast, leaving the area littered with space memorabilia. This recreation of his…
Not a hard days night in Liverpool
Home of the Beatles, Cilla Black, The Liver Birds and some say football, Liverpool is one of those great cities for a cruise stop as you dock right in the city and it’s easy, and pleasant to stroll around For Beatles fans, it’s a perfect stop, you can visit the Cavern Club, admission with The…
Hot Tubs, Thermal Pools, Pure Bliss
Don’t you just love a jacuzzi. This is probably one of my favourite cruise photos, a really hot day in May sipping G&T in the hot tub on the beautiful ship Balmoral The only thing better than a hot tub has to be a thermal pool and I’ve visited a good few of those too,…
Cadiz
Waking up on a warm spring morning to the stunning views of Cadiz from the decks of the ship, after a particularly nasty Bay of Biscay is pure bliss – a we made it moment! Cadiz is a really walkable city, there’s usually a ship walking tour, and the photo shows the little park you’ll…
Bergen
They say it’s always cold & wet in Bergen! Don’t believe them! The first time I went to Norway, in early May, the snow was still on the mountains, and the waterfall frozen, but everyone was on deck sunbathing The second time however… It poured! My daughter however went up the funicular about an hour…
Solo Travel? You got a friend in Fred
So I did a cruise review, it went a bit potty, 1200 people have read it!!! In it I said that the particular cruise line didn’t do a lot for the solo traveller, so of course I was asked which lines did I’ve been fortunate enough to sail on a lot of lines, sometimes solo,…
Spice Island. Grenada
Wow! I offered to take suggestions for ports to feature so this is the first of my requested Port posts. The lovely island of Grenada is on both Ventura’s voyage to the Caribbean in 2022 and Ambience to Cuba and the Caribbean in 2023 Plus lots of other Southern Caribbean cruises. I visited with Fred…
Stockholm
Home of IKEA, H&M and Abba A city made up of Fourteen islands intertwined by 57 bridges One of the most scenic cities to sail in or out of, the archipelago or myriad of tiny islands are just begging to be photographed and admired Gamla Stan the picture perfect old town is easily walkable from…
Art Journal, Travel Journal, Whatever it’s called
I’ve been attempting to record my adventures here and in a little picture journal of some sort And in all honesty the painted and written one is going better than this online one. Maybe it’s because I’m not naturally techie but I love painting. Maybe it’s because when troubled you lose yourself in what you…
Caribbean to Canaries to Blinkin Baltic
