Yep. That's the trip I was on. We just got back this morning and can't wait to have the money available for another cruise.

The weather was seriously horrible for the first couple of days. Even the Captain said it was the worst weather he had encountered in 30 years sailing. I stayed healthy but Susan & the kids spent 2 days throwing up. Rebecca & Michael wanted to get off the boat at that stage and vowed never to go on a boat again. We missed our day at Noumea due to the ship struggling through the bad weather.

Suddenly, we reached calm waters on day 3 and it turned into an absolutely fantastic experience from then on. Despite the bad weather, I can highly recommend cruising as a great holiday option.







Now, how can I lose the weight gained from 7 days of 3 course meals for breakfast, lunch & dinner, a high tea each afternoon & lots of great cocktails?

I suspect if you asked Billy J, it would involve a lot of swiming and cycling :wagtongue:
