Whilst on cruise, we enjoy listening to live music from the many onboard entertainers. One band we have been following for while is Dial2 who perform on P&O Australia.

Who has been to Hobbiton from a cruise? We went a couple of years ago, and it really was an exciting and surreal experience. Not sure if I should admit this, but I have never seen any of the movies! BUT I had a fantastic time. They really have done a good job with the whole […]
