Guess where we're going?

We booked our August vacation tonight - we've decided to take a Cruise! We've never been on one before, so it took a lot of research to make sure that we weren't getting ripped off etc. Anyway, we finally found one that we liked so we fly from Gatwick airport on Aug. 9 to Heraklion on Crete in Greece. From there we travel to Dubrovnik in Crotia and then on to Corfu, Cephalonia, Olympia and Athens - all in Greece. We are really looking forward to it and Peter especially needs the rest and relaxation. As for me, I wasn't too keen on spending a week in 40+ degrees, but since we haven't yet had much of a summer here in Amesbury, I think I can handle it for 7 days. We're hoping to be approved for our househunting trip for the week following the cruise, but if not we will probably take some small trips to Scotland and Ireland. There are some pretty cheap flights available from London or Southampton to both places ... so we'll see, and as always, we'll keep you posted!

p.s. i added a picture of the cruise ship, since a post without pics just seems boring!

Your life is like one big adventure lately...we love reading your blog, and keeping up with all the exciting things you do,even hanging out with royalty.Orleans will be very boring after visiting all these places and of course your cruise. We miss seeing you over here,but glad you are so happy there.
