Holiday sounds fantastic, did you sail all the way to Aus?
Glad to hear you're feeling better too.
We flew out to Singapore, then sailed down to Australia and New Zealand, across the Pacific to San Francisco and Flew back from there. Some people were doing the full world cruises from Southampton back to Southampton. They boarded on 9th January and got back on 22nd April!Early retired - 18th December 2014

Photos are amazing, Goldie.I will probably show them to my son tomorrow as he's still very interested in wildlife. He also likes coastal landscapes, probably because he doesn't see them very often.
Cruise sounds brilliant. I'd love to go on an around the world tour, or even a half way around the world tour like you did.2018 totals:

It is lovely to hear from you and I am so glad the trip was a success. And that you are feeling better. Good luck with the decorating.Paid off mortgage nine years early in 2013. Now picking and choosing our work to fit in with the rest of our lives!
Still thrifty though, after all these years:D0 -
