You are having my dream vacation, I love cruises!
I only did one but I hope to be able to do another one soon, Reny wanted to do the one at the fjords and see the Northern Lights.
We have the beach house, but I confess that in the last two years we haven't used it much.
These ones are not "proper" cruises, but it was nice to be on the boat and not have to do much of anything :)
Don't use the beach house? You are crazy!
Eh eh yes you're right we are a bit crazy.
From next summer, however, with the new arrival in the family, I think we will go more often, the sea air is good for children
Then if you find yourself passing through Italy and want to spend a few days at the beach, just whistle... we have plenty of space we could accommodate two complete families!
