Sunday 18 December - some final thoughts about the Week Fantastique
We really enjoyed ourselves on this cruise but just the same, I probably wouldn't cruise with P&O again unless it was for another family celebration. If I was planning another 'local' cruise, I'd go back to Princess or try Royal Carribean or Celebrity or Holland America, all of which are just a little more my style of cruise. There's no one thing in particular that Princess does enormously better than P&O, it's more that everything they do is just a little better. And overall the Princess ships - the ones I've been on anyway - are definitely in a better shape than the two P&O ones I've been on. Again, not that the P&O ones are bad, it's just the Princess ones are better.
Today I'm catching up on washing, which is of course the downside of deciding not to do any laundry on board. And, all three of us are having a bit of 'unseasickness'- feeling just a little woozy because the ship isn't rocking from side to side :-)
We're also still unpacking - all three of us have the day off tomorrow as well, so hopefully we'll be ready to get back to our normal routine on Tuesday. Then, I can get back to holiday planning - it's only 247 days until we leave on our next holiday!
