Thank you Nigella for the good advice, very helpful. I would really love to do a cruise on a luxury liner but the other half is still not sure. We are very private and lead a simple life and don't really mix well socially as we are quite shy in many ways. We always dreamed of a world cruise when we retired but there are so many to choose from and it all becomes complicated when trying to get the right one.

Thank you

Lovely pictures Terry, thanks for explaining about the rich food, it's good to know that the portions are not too big, my other half is a very small eater which is why we are not so sure about a cruising holidays as everything seems to be focused on the food from what l have read so far.

The other half is also very camera shy, do the other people on board mind you taking their photos or are these from the photographers who work on the boat, as they all look very professional and everyone seems to be having a great time.

You can probably tell that I am having a hard time persuading here and apologise for asking questions. We were thinking about doing another short cruise to somewhere but Silverseas don't seem to do the party ones.

I had better shut up now and carry on reading and learning from all you experienced sailors.

Thank you

Please excuse the interruption...but I have been following/lurking on Terry's lovely blog and thinking about booking a cruise on Silversea as a result of this. Not sure about the Amazon as I don't like the thought of all the jungle bugs, but the Caribbean is looking good so far as l like the warm weather when it is very cold at home. Only tried a quick party cruise on a Fred Olsen boat so far, but all this looks really nice so hope l can persuade my better half to book something. Not really sure about all the rich food can't eat like I used to when l was younger. Any advice welcome.

Thanks
