Glaciers move from underneath I believe as the snow/ice melts, which causes momentum.  I would love to see that blue ice ......

I must try and find the pix,think they're on the PC,I'll TRY and remember clkd and send them to you..........please note the word TRY

Just had an email from Cunard,no negative Covid certificate needed,which has made my day,Lloyds charging £79 EACH for a lateral flow and a measly certificate,they do ask that you do your own test 24/48 hours prior to boarding,which,to me,is completely pointless as you could test positive the day you board,oh well,at least I can look forward to my holiday now

It's whether passengers carry bugs onto the ships 

Enjoy!

Just back from a 2 week cruise ladies. Not going to lie, I was ready to come home after, maybe, 10 nights. It was good don’t get me wrong but the overeating and drinking too many cocktails make me crave simple food and a cup of tea  . Dearie me, I’ve put about 5 pounds on 
It was our first time in Israel. I’m not religious at all but a tour around Jerusalem’s old city was fascinating I have to say.
Right - I’m off to make beans on toast for my supper 

[jaypo]

Ha,good to hear from you,we were wondering when you were back,You know something? That's exactly what I say,at Xmas when we're away for 15 nights,I'll be ready to come home way before then,the food is amazing but like you, I crave "normal " food and get sick of the sight of alcohol,yep, I said it  enjoy your beans on toast

7 days away is never enough, 10 is far too long 

Did U feel safe in Israel?

[Songbird]

I felt absolutely fine in Israel, CLKD. Didn't feel threatened at all. The 4 "quarters" in the old city, including the Wailing Wall, were fascinating to me.
It was strange to see jet skis on the Sea of Galilee  and the huge queue of people waiting to be baptised (or dunked) in the River Jordan.

[CLKD]

A clash of cultures then. 

[Songbird]

Yep. I’ve never been anywhere like it 

[jaypo]

Not fancy getting dunked then songbird?

[Songbird]

No way Jaypo  .. Everything was strange to me..they were all dressed in white (some, clearly taking a lot of care with their hair and makeup), only to be dunked - hair and makeup ruined! Not for Songbird 
The weirdest thing was seeing people having fun on jet skis in the middle of the Sea of Galilee (at the same time as a nun having a paddle at the shallow bit)

Would’ve looked even weirder if you saw a nun on the jet ski. 

I’d love to go there, but OH wouldn’t. 🤷🏼‍♀️

My dh won't go near a cruise ship. The thought of being surrounded by all that water freaks him out.

I'd love to have seen that Jilly
