We stay in balcony cabins and love sitting there with a glass of wine drifting along, or eating breakfast floating up a Norwegian fjord admiring the scenery.

We are doing the Norwegian Fjords in 2 weeks time.  Can't wait.

Where are you going next?

The fjords are lovely, we were there in September a few years ago and the weather was good apart from some showers in Bergen.

This year we are off to Iberia, we haven't been to Lisbon before and that's our first port and then as far as Ibiza. We went to Ibiza about 30 years ago and enjoyed Santa Eulalia and loved a day we spent on Fomentera.

So far our favourite port has been Ajaccio in Corsica, a beautiful old town and lovely beach where the sea was so warm and clear and somewhere we really want to visit again. 

What's your favourite port ?

Does the one in a glass with lemon count ?

We done Bahamas, Mediterranean, Alaska and The Baltics.  Very hard to choose a favourite port.  Think maybe it was Juneau or St Petersburg.  My favourite cruise was Alaska, really beautiful scenery.  Standing on the top deck early in the morning, still quite dark and cold and misty - so atmospheric.  Having breakfast on deck with Mount Vesuvius in the background was nice too. And the sunsets - WOW

We were watching a programme about a Company that arranges top-of-the-range cruises ………. 100 people, that's 98 too many for me

I'd love to visit all the places that cruises stop at, but what puts me off is a fear of being on the water.  I'd rather be up in a plane.  Strange - but true!

I was born on an Island  .  Some of the trips were costing £60,000 for 2 per week

Dulciana, I'm the same!  Makes me strange too! 

[CLKD]

Oh, I'd missed the posts above ……….  for the info. about the fjords sounds lovely.  I would be overwhelmed at the choice of places to eat though, I would have to ask for room service

I have a dread of being surrounded by water and not able to see land anywhere.  you would not catch me on one although my husband would love the experience of a cruise.

[CLKD]

Himself thinks he would be bored 

[babyjane]

well you can't get off if you don't like it

that would make me feel trapped, the Isle of Wight was bad enough by the end of the week
