Currently two albums of photos, general ship and cabin photos and Royal Promenade Street Party photos, I do also have some videos of the Brit Rock Night which I need to upload to youtube. More photos to follow including dolphins!

Thank you for a wonderful review. My family are cruising for the first time on the 26th July and reading about your trip has really got us excited.

We took one on but never used it in the end

Hi Melissa,

Were there any issues taking your iron on board in terms of the security checks, scanners etc...thanks for the reviews, we sail a week on Sunday on our maiden cruise!:)

Nope it made it through in one piece :-)

That was lucky I had to unpack my handbag twice when I went through security at Southampton in May as xray scanner could see something, turned out to be a packet of chewing gum!

And on last year's cruise I was called to security after boarding to remove husband's Skean Dhu (Scottish ceremonial knife) from one of our suitcases it had to be handed over to security until we got back to Southampton. However another gentleman we met on board had got his skean dhu through tucked inside his shoes.

A very detailed and fair review of the cruise. We're heading out on the 12th of July for 14 nights. Really looking forward to it having read through your whole blog.

Thanks for taking the time to share your holiday with us.

Thanks Melissa for such a detailed review and photos! Hope you and Steve get to meet up again soon! :)

I hope to make a compilation video of the best of our photos but unfortunately I'm having to wait for a new laptop charger as the old one went caput.

Edit to add that Cruise Compass's are going on as we speak :-)

Thank you for the review and the Cruise Compasses. A very enjoyable read.
