A cruise is lovely is a cruise...

...and it was!  Yes a wee bit Hi de hi - there was a hairy chest competition at one point and yes we did have queue a lot, sorry wait in line, for our food - but it didn't stop us having a great time.  The kids loved the water slides and the hot tubs, the adults loved the strawberry daiquiris and the huge cans of Fosters.  Oh and other things not related to alcohol of course.  We saw in the New Year with a huge balloon drop with the kids and then an adult party, featuring fizz and jumpers, hoodies, coats and hoods on our balcony.  Fun but brrrrr! Added together with a trip to Universal first it was a New Year to remember.
