I've got a new favourite city. I admit it might have something to do with the cocktail of weather and company, but still I'm definitely sold on Stockholm. This is a gob smackingly beautiful city. I was awake at 5:30 just like everyone told me to, on deck minutes later for some seriously astounding scenery as we cruised in through the archipelago. There are over 24k islands that make up this region and every one of them stands on this crisp sea beckoning ...

Up too early for a sea day, we'd booked ourselves into a Character breakfast. We shared a table with a French couple who both work at Disneyland Paris. It was hard to tell if Gab was more awestruck by Minnie or Genevieve, imagine getting to work at Disneyland everyday, and loving it so much that you have Disney holidays too?  After breakfast the kids couldn't dump us for kids club quickly enough, Gab and I enjoyed the morning to ourselves.

Oh no, I'm suddenly pining for Germany and regretting not organising a tour in to Berlin. Currywurst, Berliner, we're missing out! WIth no plan for the day we took our cue from the area.

For the past century or two though it has established itself as a sea side resort town for this part of Germany. So resort pace it was for us today. We ...

It's 3 minutes to The Little Mermaid. The Christian in Hans Christian Anderson is anchored in some deep history. We're standing on land that has been occupied for over 6000 years, the home of the longest running monarchy, Australia's only real royalty and most importantly of all, g...

My god I miss sleep! Today is a sea day which means last night the kids had the freedom to be out as long as they wanted. Boo was home around 12, Fid a little after 1am. I crashed soon after Gab escorted me back from the Irish pub :) I woke to Gab's alarm going off for some ungodly reason. It turns out she had a perfectly valid one though, we had Boo booked for the Princess Gathering in the atrium in half an hour. My sleepyhead demanded more, the pang of guil...
