The Oriana




A cruise always involves some seriously good food. Gary Rhodes Oriana is the most wonderful eating experience. The food and service is second to none. Had a yummy meal there with lovely company. Cheers all x



Colloseum and Trevi Fountain

Rome was simply stunning. Visited the Sistine Chapel, the Basilica, Trevi Fountain and the Colloseum.

Gibraltar





Lovely monkeys, some just a few weeks old, some with huge teeth !!
Simon was quite impressed when I told him I'd seen a golden eagle!

Barcelona



The Ramblers in Barcelona. The street artists were brilliant.
Perhaps we should have asked the price of the beer BEFORE we ordered. £10 a glass !!

Monte Carlo or bust !



Monte Carlo




Plus, there were NO 2p slotties in the Casino. Would you beleive it !

Monte Carlo





1000's of boats costing £millions. Every car a Farari, every drink champagne, Prada, Gucci, Channel shops everywhere. These all on the grand prix circuit. How the rich people live !
