Lucky you back in Madeira, it was my favourite port. It has not been drizzle here it has been rain!! Just stopped now so might risk taking dogs out. Have a wonderful second week on Azura, wish I was with you Michelle

Thank you, wish I was back in the warm sunshine!!! We will be putting clocks forward in a few weeks though with lovely light nights to look forward to Michelle

Morning everyone, hope you are all ok this morning. Mondays seem to come around quickly don’t they? It looks a cloudy day here today but I have a fair bit of washing and ironing to do after my hols so that will keep me busy. I really enjoyed my week on Azura and the weather was kind to us. We managed to eat in The Glass House, Epicurean and Sindhu, all were fabulous. The other nights we ate in the main dining room, only one bad main course, steak that was completely tasteless. We ate breakfast in the Oriental restaurant which lovely. I have read that someone who was on our flight home has already become ill with you know what. Have a lovely day everyone Michelle

Hope you have a lovely holiday. We went to Madeira for the first time last Monday on Azura and loved it, would def like to go back for longer. Post some pics if you get chance Michelle

Barraquito coffee

Coffee in Lanzarote this morning

Hi everyone, just been catching up with all your posts while I have 4G. We are in Gran Canaria today, a bit of drizzle for half an hour early this morning but lovely weather since. Lanzarote tomorrow.

Good afternoon everyone, hope you are all well today. We have finally made it onto the ship (Azura) after an early morning flight. I have managed to book The Glass House and Sindu restaurants so far. The weather is beautiful so currently laid on a sunned, hubby has gone to get me a Pina Colada. All is good!!! Take care everyone and have a nice weekend Michelle

Glad she is feeling better Graham Michelle

Looks fantastic, a trip of a lifetime Michelle

Hi everyone, hope you are all ok today. Its very blustery here today but with good spells of sunshine but feeling cold. Well I still haven’t got any further with my ironing & packing, maybe after a cup of coffee. I have been growing my hair into a bob but not been very happy with it as it made me look old and frumpy, so this lunchtime I rang a hairdresser that I had heard good reports of and she had an appointment in 30 mins available. Just back home and I have a fabulous pixie cut. Michelle

I like it there Graham although my credit card might not agree Michelle

That brought a smile to my face Graham😆 First time on Arvia next year for us too repositioning from Caribbean to Southampton. Just had a phone call from P & O, got an upgrade from inside to Oceanview cabin for our cruise on Saturday. Inside would have been fine for a week but it was a nice surprise and gratefully received. Michelle

Hope you feel better soon Graham. Booking a cruise will hopefully cheer you up a bit Have you been on Arvia before? Not feeling great myself today, not a cold or anything just an “MS” day when I just don’t feel my normal self and just want to sit down and do nothing. I have loads of ironing to do too ready for packing, looks like that won’t be getting done anytime soon. Have a good day everyone Michelle

Sorry to hear you are not feeling so good, hopefully you will feel better soon. I really have to start getting stuff ready for my holiday as we fly on Saturday. The problem is I hate doing it and I hate the actual packing too. Hubby had just decided he needs new black trousers too, I am leaving him to sort that himself. Have a good day everyone Michelle

Same here, we are on that repositioning cruise too and hardly any difference and less OBC Michelle

That just looks fantastic Michelle

Those words are really nice to hear, it will be our first cruise since August 2019 and I have read so many negative posts about her so good to hear something positive. Glad you are having a good time Michelle

I will try that when we join Azura on the 25/2 Michelle

We have seen Mama Mia The Party too, like you say worth every penny , highly recommended Michelle

Morning everyone, hope you are all ok today. Its certainly getting lighter in a morning and evening I have noticed and we can now say we change the clocks next month to really make it seem Spring is on its way. We have started tidying the garden too which is another good sign that Spring ur well and truly on its way. Going across to Yorkshire today to collect three grandchildren for a couple of days. Taking them to Sandcastle(indoor water park) in Blackpool tomorrow afternoon which they love. Have a good day everyone Michelle

Have a great time Michelle

I booked for August 2023 in January 2022 close to when the summer cruises were launched. I got a great price and can get nothing close to it when I did a dummy booking just now. Maybe you could watch for launch for 2025? I know it seems ages and ages away. You will have a wonderful time whichever cruise line you sail with Michelle

We are cruising with four of our grandchildren in August with age range 5 to 14 in two interconnecting sea view cabins. We are going with Royal Caribbean, there is so much going on for them with such a wide age range. I would consider P & O and Princess too but I think Royal for the kids is un-beatable ( my opinion only). I am sure whichever cruise line you choose you will have a brilliant time. Michelle

Hope you have a great time, we join her on 25 Feb Michelle
