We embarked on our first cruise in June – and possibly our last. We joined friends for a river cruise on the Seine from Paris to the English Cannel at Honfleur. Being with friends was great but the regimented restrictions of the cruise didn’t suit our free spirits. There wasn’t enough time off the boat for us to explore and roam. All the same it was relaxing and the weather was great.

Later in the year we enjoyed ten days in Madeira with a couple of weekends in between in the Lakes.
