Final Thoughts

We’ve travelled the Panama canal and the Suez canal, we’ve walked the Great Wall, touched the giant heads on Easter island, felt the ground shake by an active volcano, climbed the pyramids, swam in the Dead Sea, passed through the Gateway to India, walked the corridors of Angkor Wat, stood at Ground Zero of the first atomic bomb, had a face to face meeting with the great Gold Bhudda and prayed in the Great Blue Mosque. We’ve sailed the river Nile and the canals of Venice, the Great Barrier reef, the Red Sea, the Yellow Sea, the Black Sea and the White Sea, it’s hard to believe thinking back on it and those are only a few of the amazing things we’ve been lucky enough to experience……………

I have no tips for future world cruisers other than, If you can afford it ………. do it …………….. I loved every minute, I could happily have stayed on for another 3 months (if it was free) though maybe not, as I‘d miss my kids and animals. Next time I would arrange more independent tours, the Princess tours were greatly overpriced and not half as enjoyable as those we arranged ourselves.

Most memorable places would be China, Cambodia and India.

Most memorable things about the ship would be the staff almost without exception they were the best of any ship we’ve been on and the cleanliness and upkeep of the ship was without equal. The passengers went from the nicest people you could hope to meet to a few who were total pita’s, the world cruisers were 90 percent 60’s and older but there were quite a few 50’s and even a two younger couples with small kids.

I’d be happy to answer any questions via the comments capability, I get an email notification whenever anyone posts a comment.

Thanks to all who followed the blog, hope to see you all again, next world cruise :).
