The first of our four sea days in a row. It was a warm day, 20 Celsius (68F), but a bit rocky in the morning. As the cruise went on the ocean became smoother. Sea days are one of the reasons we love transatlantic cruises. There are usually 5 or 6 of them. We get […]
The first port of call is Portland UK. We were unsure of what to do here. The marquee shore excursion is Stonehenge. The time onshore was short and Stonehenge is far from the port and the safest way to visit is through DCL cruise excursions. I didn’t see any glowing reviews; many people complain that […]
Picking up from where I left off on the last post. We waited only a few minutes before our boarding number was called and we were ready to let the Magic begin. I thought that the Port of Dover did a good job of getting people on the ship. The waiting area was large with […]

With just two days remaining in London before the cruise, we wanted to make the most of our time; we wanted to visit the Victoria […]
This post will be shorter than the others. Also, I don’t have as many pictures from this day because there is no photography permitted in Westminster Abbey. We had a bit of a late start this day. You may notice a trend—travelling with kids and teens requires some flexibility and more downtime. If I remember […]
