Afternoon Tea Ma’am?
It wasn’t until recently that I discovered this grand old British tradition of afternoon tea. A friend of mine had been pestering me to experience it for months, so to shut her up I did.

But up against the modern era, the differences are much larger. You used to find cruise […]
A Roman Adventure
Rome is undoubtedly on everyone’s ‘must-see’ list. And if it isn’t, then it should be. Cruise to the Mediterranean and your ship will almost always visit Rome at some point along the way. And since I was lucky enough to see this ancient city just a few weeks ago I thought I’d share with you […]
Food, Glorious Food
I’m motoring through this list of cruise misconceptions that I came up with in my first blog post, smashing them to pieces.
