July morning

Welcome home, the plus side for you is getting your dog back bet there was lots of tail wagging (from your dog)😂 Anyway I have enjoyed the reports and your photos were good as well.

Hi Selbourne, The zoo/aviary at Cartagena is a nice way to pass time with a drink or coffee we went there after DIY was going to be hard work but the next time we went on an excursion and prefered the aviary 😂 hopefully you'll enjoy both

They could change back to how it used to be when you arrive you enter and get a card a,d,c etc and you wait seated inside could even buy a coffee etc then you get called by the card. They still at the same time had separate check in desks for priority and disabled. It only got changed when they restarted after the big C

we had one of these balconies last year and loved it. Although it's open and people could over look you it didn't happen to us that I'm aware of as the people above have to be standing and leaning against there rail to look over and I'm sure they had better things to do 😂

Thanks Avril it worked 😀

can someone tell me how to respond to some of the messages example I read a message that i think is funny or agree with but when I click on the heart, laughing face etc nothing happens 😬

We've used "Taste" on Bolletto & Borealis and it's been lovely with good service and the price booking before you is excellent 🙂

Purplesea, it's the same here my husband went for a MRI scan and we had to chase up the results over a few days not good for stress levels! I am expecting the same to happen after he gets his bone scan tomorrow 🤐

I was going to recommend BookBud but Danamis beat me. I like current crime novels as well 😉

Peanut I hope you don't mind me asking but how is your dogs eye now? hopefully a good recovery 🐶

Selbourne, please feel free to bore us rigid with your ramblings 😂 I'm enjoying them very much 😄

Peanut, that's good to hear about your dog and the bill will be worth it 😉 you like myself will probably do anything to help your dog they are a big part of our lives. Avril, I've been reading your posts about Frank and wish him well, take care ❤

Good report, I enjoyed reading it really good to have two reports on the go. Have a great time 😁

Looking forward to reading your comments, enjoy the cruise 😁

Interesting read you do give a lot of detail 🙂

Hi, I'm a bit of a lurker but would like to wish everyone a Happy and Healthy New Year 😁

We got ours today as well and I like the diary 😁

Would be surprised if they let you use a different age group as your booking is made and accepted based on child ages

I filled a small bottle in the buffet when quiet using a glass

Josy, I'm so sorry to read your news a heart breaking time for everyone. Stay strong and take care of yourself and family.

Lucky for us only had to pay for it once the other times we've sailed with FO free drinks package was one of the offers when we booked 🙂

I give myself extra time and just as well I did as Ventura was a bit late docking last week and disembarked an "ambulance needed" Passenger before opening for everyone else including self disembark it was all a bit chaotic. We were flying home from Southampton Airport

Got back from Ventura last week and the new extra charge items were available every evening in the Freedom dining restaurants. As someone said early on it was a loose page inside the menu. Can't comment on whether it was good as we didn't try it. Used the Glasshouse it was good

We like that Fred sails from more Northern ports as it saves the hassle of getting to Southampton. We wish he would bring back the fly cruises. On the subject of the "All inclusive Package" As others have stated it's a drinks package and has certainly served us well😂 It's quite clear what you get and at the moment prices on board for drinks are reasonable. We just use free wi-fi when in port if we feel the need to check anything at home. Crew "tips" are fair and of course if someone has served you well extra is given at the end of the cruise. Got home from P&O Ventura on Tuesday and no way would we even consider it but of course that's our choice.

Thanks for your comments. Always interested to read others views and look forward to your final thoughts 😊
