Advice about going on cruises
Watch this postI would like to go on a cruise. Unfortunately most people I talk to say it's for old people that suits me fine because I'm an older person lol.
Seriously has anybody been on a cruise people and could tell me how they enjoyed it?
The good and the bad. Mayz

breakfast morning coffee three course lunch we never had. Afternoon tea lovely. Five course dinner then entertainment afterwards which was usually quite good. Fair enough I have never been on my own , I went with my husband who has now passed away. So the last cruise was with my granddaughter and she quite enjoyed it too. Everything on your doorstep and the flexibility to do exactly what you want
