Lovely topic Ann and hope you’re both well. Was it the Baltic cruise we met in?  We weren’t due to go to the Caribbean this year but doing a B2B on Iona. Little did we know what would happen to cruising when we arrived back on Ventura on March 17th last year! 
 

I love dressing up especially since I retired but when I first started cruising I wore outfits I’d bought for weddings and a couple of dresses from Mess Nights in the 80s 😬. Since then I’ve enjoyed blinging  up and like other ladies here (and maybe some gents. What do I know 🤔🤔), I have lots of jewellery and sparkly shoes. It’s the only time I wear proper heels any more and cling on to my OH. 😂 

Sadly all my outfits are hanging up in my wardrobe and hopefully I’ll need them next January on Ventura.  I’m a keen planner but the prospect of not cruising or even if we do that we have to take P&O tours means I’ve given little thought to what we can do. However I was tempted by the great sales online and managed to snag a dress for half-price!

Beautiful! I think it was on the USA and Canada cruise on Aurora that we met. Mark and I are considering the Caribbean cruise on Ventura but in Feb 2022. I notice you are interested in the FO cruise through the Corinth canal. That is another cruise that we are considering(though not keen on FO)but we are waiting for a few months to see how the covid situation is before we book anything
