patricia63 Posted February 6, 2005 #1 Share Posted February 6, 2005 Anyone on The Opera 11th June Good morning everyone from the UK, am going on my first (of many i hope) cruise on the 11th June, on The Opera, looks an absolutely beautiful ship. Have to confess feeling a bit nervous. Not had a holiday since my husband died two years ago, cruises seem an ideal way for a lady to have a safe holiday and see the world and make new friends hopefully. Just joined this site been very interesting reading some of the messages ....nice to see lots of positive feedback. Look forward to hearing from anyone of you on this cruise regards Patricia x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GardenAngel Posted June 28, 2005 #18 Share Posted June 28, 2005 Hi Patricia I'm back and already wishing I wasn't! Had a wonderful time, the Opera is beautiful and the whole experience was like a dream come true! Our cabin was right at the front of the ship on deck 9 and even though we had only paid for an outside with restricted view, the views were fabulous. The only thing which "restricted" the view was a sort of observation deck, and as the door to that was right next to our cabin we were out there a lot watching as we came into port in the mornings. We couldn't hear the engines out there at all, just the sound of the sea and the warm breeze - it was the perfect start to each day. I can't wait to cruise again, although it will have to be next year. After cruising for the first time I don't think I ever want to holiday in any other way!
