It's been exactly two years minus one day since I unexpectedly returned to UK due to Covid. It's been tough times for everyone but I think we are near to seeing the end of the tunnel. The start of the new beginning is no better demonstrated than by free travel around the world again. Free travel has a slightly differently meaning from pre COVID days but a drastic improvement from COVID days. After a few forms and a final test I finally made it on board to my first holiday in two years!!
This is going to be my home for the next two weeks, temporary nevertheless, but a luxury home that moves around the world offering exquisite food (yummy), things to do on board or just relaxing not doing anything. Plus it will take me away on holiday, any where is fine under the current situation
I just did a quick walk around to explore whats available on board and have to say am really impressed with the facilities. There's a whole bunch of restaurants and bars which all look so elegant, I'll have plenty of time to check them all out.
So far I've found the cinema, library, one of the infinity pools, the indoor pool and jacuzzi complete with live performance, and the gin distillery. Yep, it really distills gin on board! I mean, if I didn't tell you, you wouldn't know all this is onboard a cruise ship!
Oh! And I went to watch a live show! Its been years since that's possible, it's just so nice to inject some live into life.
And I've done all this even before leaving UK. Our departure has been delayed a bit because of the storm yesterday. Now we're still in dock, sadly no sunset view as it's still a bit gloomy. I think this view from the deck promenade is just as stunning to see me off later on.
I shall be off grid for a couple of weeks unless I find free WiFi somewhere to post updates. So please don't miss me as I don't think I shall have time to miss you all 💕
