 Cruise ships - Duncan
We have done a few cruises.

Couple with CMV based at Tilbury. One cruise round the Baltic, one round the British Isles. On the Marco Polo, IIRC. Very pleasant, cheaper, older ships, no balconies.

A few with P & O based at Southampton. Round the Med - a couple of times? - The Canaries - a couple of times. We do enjoy it. Don't book the set dining thing, have Freedom Dining, different companions every evening. Better for us, better for them. We did feel that they were going a little bit down-market. Not quite our thing, don'cha know!

One short cruise in Vietnam - Ha Long Bay - was it? Quite remarkable sights. Casts(?) is that the word - sticking up out of the sea.

Whether we will do another one, I don't know. I like the freedom they give you. Someone else does all the work. Go ashore when you want, eat when you want. What's not to like?
