    I won, I won, I won!
    I'll be positive to begin with, I loved trying to look for whales and dolphin which we did upto 7 hours a day and my 8 year saw a couple!!

    But to be quite honest, I didn't enjoy the cruise at all, I travelled with myself, OH and kids aged 8 and 10, on the first evening - went to the entertainment area where they had bingo on - I asked whether there was any entertainment on for the kids but no - nothing!! My kids were utterly bored. I thought they could have had something on for them. So anyway played bingo everynight and they were a couple of singing acts. We took food with us, but there was no alot else to do - except eat, so we spent a bloomin fortune on food. The cabin was tiny there wasn't enough room to open the suitcase and we all had to take it in turn to get changed. When arriving in Spain the scenery were cargo boxes everywhere, and the shops were shut and it was raining!! So we queued to get back on the ship for over an hour. The journey back was not great, the kids were being sick, me and OH feel out. But for me what really did it - was that I smoke (unfortunately) so there was smoking room that you went in - it was terrible as it is a booze cruise basically!!!! Need I say more.

    I have never, ever complained or moaned about a win, and I really didn't expect to moan about a cruise to spain...but unfortunately all it felt like was a ferry to spain and back again being bored and spending a fortune of food.

    But I'm everyone that will be going will have a great time, the weather is sure to be better for them.
