OO EE, OO EE BABY! :)

This Queen is going to England. Yes, it's true! Ben and I are flying to Heathrow Airport on June 21 to take a cruise from Harwich, England to Paris and Cherbourg, France, Cork and Dublin, Ireland, Glasgow, Scotland, Geiranger, Flam, Alesund and Bergen, Norway then back to Harwich on July 4. We will be spending the night near Heathrow Airport then flying back to Detroit on July 5.

I am deathly afraid of water, get motion sickness just riding in an elevator and suffer from claustrophobia so I should be a fun person to be with! LOL

I've never been on a cruise so for any of y'all that have been, would you please pass along any tips, ideas or thoughts on taking a cruise? Should I pack formal items and/or just casual clothing? Are there facilities/laundry mats or any type of service on the ship to wash clothing? Questions, questions! I need answers, answers -- I need help! LOL

And yes, there are good guys at SFF. One found lucky 'ole me!

Ship Ahoy!

"...So be my guest, you got nothin' to lose
Won't ya let me take you on a sea cruise?

Oo-ee, oo-ee baby
Oo-ee, oo-ee baby
Oo-ee, oo-ee baby
Won't ya let me take you on a sea cruise?..."*

The positive is there. Sometimes it's just hard to find.

RRH: Come cruising with me, some time. My sailboat is "clothing optional".... so all you need is your toothbrush and a tube of lipstick......

Ackman ~~ What a great offer but I always carry 4 or 5 tubes of lipstick with me!
