Kreuzfahrtneuling Posted March 8, 2015 Author #877 Share Posted March 8, 2015 :):):)We're back! ;)lol -- and we didn't miss the ship this time! I'll get going with a humoungous heap of laundry and after that will start to sort through our many new pictures. Lot's of fun stories -- no heart-stoppingly-thrilling ones this time so relax and prepare for an easy-listening review. Tarik is back as well -- and guess what? He had fun afterall:rolleyes: and knows how to ski now. Yay -- no mean parents anymore ... he even wants to go again next year! YESSSSSS!!!!!!! I'll post a link to the new review here once I get started ... I'm guessing in about one to two weeks. Stef Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

willma Posted March 13, 2015 #886 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Hi Steff. Hope you had a great cruise! We were in the area on the NCL Spirit, but our ports did not coincide, otherwise I would have looked out for you! Can't wait to read about what you did. We loved Madeira btw.

Kreuzfahrtneuling Posted July 30, 2015 Author #893 Share Posted July 30, 2015 :) finally decided on next year's summer vacation .... guess who won? Scotland! Just this time we'll stay on dry land ...we'll be travelling in a Panda (with the stirring weel on the left side) from our doorstep with two dogs along ..... oh goody! I really hope they allow dogs in bed and breakfast places ... might have to check that first .... and does anybody know if you can take two dogs along into a Scottish pub? :pI can't wait to be in Scotland again!

suekay Posted July 30, 2015 #894 Share Posted July 30, 2015 I can't imagine 2 adults, ?a teenager and 2 dogs travelling round Scotland in a Panda but I'm sure you'll have a great time! Check out this site https://www.dugswelcome.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suekay Posted July 30, 2015 #895 Share Posted July 30, 2015 So sorry to hear about Cody. We lost our much loved 14 year old Molly at Christmas and I can't believe how much it hurt. We've just got a Springer puppy called Betty and boy! she couldn't be more different from our old lady. She's a whirling dervish☺ but learning fast and eager to please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stef Hmmm....not sure about the pub, but I had always heard it was very difficult to take animals into the British Isles...that might just be from the US/Outside of Europe, but worth looking into. Ah, I looked it up, not too bad, but there are some rules to follow first! And you should check with your vet to make sure the pets are healthy enough to travel ;) that should be the easy part! https://www.gov.uk/pet-travel-information-for-pet-owners#countries-and-territories The picture on this one looks a little like Stef! http://www.visitscotland.com/en-us/travel/information/pets Edited July 30, 2015 by denisey Adding website....

Kreuzfahrtneuling Posted August 4, 2015 Author #897 Share Posted August 4, 2015 hi suekay, Lol -- just two adults, a dainty Border Collie Princess and a feisty pug/bulldog mix. Tarik will travel abroad in a teenager group again ... He doesn't like it, but we decided it's good for him to be dragged out of his hermit-cave once in a while to mingle with other teenagers. So tough luck, kiddo. Once he travels he does have fun afterall. Let's see a picture of Betty! Stef PS: Lol -- Tanja is already crying bloody murder because of lacking space in the panda on the future trip, since I told her I'd just have to take my violin along .... wanna play while standing on a purple highland hill ... cheesy, I know, but what the hell -- I want to badly:D! ... and since she loves me and married me, I guess she has to put up with me and my nutty wishes:rolleyes:.

We'll take the Euro tunnel. Usually people are asked to leave their cars to travel on the person-section of the train .... lol -- except those people travelling with their dogs ... We (have to and are glad about it) stay in our Panda with the dogs for the 35 minute transfer. Lol -- I'll feel like cargo. But we couldn't have let Lena (the Princess) alone anyway.... she surely would have died of fear. The pug couldn't care less .... oh boy, we really have to keep him from getting into trouble during the trip. That'll be a challenging task:o:rolleyes:.

belgiancruiser Posted August 12, 2015 #900 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Thank you for your splendid and interesting travelogue of your cruise on the Magnifica. I discovered it only today as there was a link to it on my cruisecritic newsletter. I suppose you Will have lots of new readers. How did your trip to Scotland go? Do you have also a blog for it. A Question : why did you decide not to hire a car to the Giants causeway but rather hope for some excursion ? Another Question : didn't you miss a window as you had several sea days, and one with heavy storm ? Your travelogue has wetted my appetite for both a new cruise, and a trip to Scotland. We did one cruise with Msc, on the Divina, in 2012, to the Eastern Med. The msc experience is recognisable. Both our embarkation and disembarkation were chaotic, though, in Venice. Still i could choose msc again. Thanks again Belgiancruiser Johan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
