Cruise holidays.
My first cruise was across the Atlantic on board the Queen Mary II with my mum because she could not fly, and this was the only way we could get to America. I then did an add-on to a coach tour in China and cruised up the Yangtze River. Years later, I went on my first cruise around the Mediterranean, and I was hooked. Within a year, I had been on four more cruises.
I had always wanted to visit Hawaii and watch whales, as both were on my bucket list. I saw a cruise on the NCL Spirit that would let me cross several things off my bucket list as it sailed around Hawaii, to Alaska and then around Alaska. These blogs describe what I did whilst on this cruise.
I had always wanted to visit Rio de Janeiro, which was on my bucket list. While looking at other cruises, I saw that Costa Cruises had an offer for single people to cruise to Rio de Janeiro on the Costa Favolosa, and I couldn't resist booking it. I told my friend Gail, whom I met on my last cruise, about the trip. She liked the itinerary and asked if I would mind if she booked to go on the cruise as well. I was delighted to have her company, and she booked the cruise and the stay in Rio de Janeiro.
In April, I was sitting at home, bored, and just looking for something to do. I started looking at cruise holidays. I found a good-priced cruise and couldn't resist booking it. I booked a cruise leaving Valencia and going to ports in Marseille in France, Savona, Civitavecchia, Oristano and Sardinia in Italy, and Palma de Mallorca before returning to Valencia.
