I am on a countdown now to my Cruise around the Western Mediterranean in June. I am organising my kindle so that I have all the books I could need. Mind you I have around 300+ on there and somehow don't think I'll be getting through them all! Even I can't read that quick.

My cabin is on the same deck as the library! Pure co-incidence I can assure you. So a little trip to that will be in order too. I did wonder about taking some books to
BookCross too, but then there's the little matter of baggage allowance. To me 20kg is not enough when you're on a cruise and want to take outfits for all occasions! I am known to be a lover of shoes, so I am going to have to be very strict with myself.
I have won a lot of different books in competitions lately which I would really love to take with me, but I am thinking that my kindle is going to have to go with me rather than books. I am going to organise a folder of books on my kindle, especially for my holiday. I am heading to Rome, Florence and Pisa in Italy.
Can anyone recommend a good book that's based in Italy to inspire me?

My book reviews this week are a bit slow on coming through. I have been reading the same two books now for just over a week. Work commitments have got in the way along with housework duties. Today it will be gardening duties as my lawn is out of control! Any offers? I hate it when all the lawns in your street are immaculate, for those that have them, and then mine is out of control! There are only 16 houses in my street so hate to let the side down. So off I go and back to my blogging later. This week is going to be a week of bookshelf organising so look out for some pre loved giveaways coming up.
Aw I would love a cruise what date are you away. We are off to Vegas on Honeymoon in a few weeks

We go on the 18th.
ReplyDeleteWhere are you staying in Vegas. We've been to Vegas and I know it quite well. You'll love it. It's like a fairy tale land for big kids!
I'm so excited for you! I went on a cruise for my honeymoon. I really want to go again. One day :) I hope you have a blast. Does this mean your blog will be quiet while you are gone? That will be very sad indeed if that is the case.
ReplyDeleteBless you Alexis! It will be quiet, but that means I'll have a lot to say for myself when I get back!
ReplyDeleteI haven't been on a cruise since I worked as a travel agent, and then I did the Far East. My husband has never been on a cruise and I'm trying to convert him.
My cousin in the US is a Cruise Travel agent and we are hoping to meet up with her next year and cruise from the US.
