…d heaters. The fourth area which is sort of linked to that is the area of hair accessories. So, hair dryers, in most cases, are allowed on board on a cruise line, so check if yours is the case. Most cruise lines nowadays will let you bring on board curling tongs, but again, check and find out if you are allowed to use those in the cabin. So that’s a whole bunch of no-nos around electrical items and the plugs on board. #4 Taking items from your cab…
…hiti Nui or Air France from Paris via Los Angeles (or also via Seattle for Air Tahiti Nui). United flies there from San Francisco. But airline choices are limited. And I found it is costly. For example, June next year an economy flight costs from $2,600 (£2,000) from Europe, and $6,000 (£4,700) in business. From the West Coast, it’s from $1,600 return in economy up to $3,600 business. The cruises are also crazy expensive, even considering the incl…

The town has some character with winding streets and lots of pubs and places to eat. Again in Summer I suspect this town will be buzzing and have a positive…
…s all day. One was in the centre of the train with large sofas and comfy chairs. The other at the rear of the train where the last third was turned into an open air observation area.- small smoking lounge- 2 dining cars. These were very different and from different eras. One from the 1920s and the other from the 1940s. You could use either to get different experiences.- small gift shop in one of the lounges. The food was very good, especially cons…
…n signs of her aging, such as towels around leaking windows to the deck, chairs with signs of threadbare arms, sun faded portraits, outdated and pretty rowdy air conditioning and unpredictable plumbing (hot water from the cold and toilet problems on the entire penthouse for a full day). You tend to take them for granted and as part of what the QE2 is, but it does flag up the fact that the QE2 is nearing the end of her time. A fact even the crew ac…
…n and who don’t seem to care how the animals travel. Transporting sheep by air has been even more challenging – airports need the facilities to accommodate them. People might say why do I bother? The sheep don’t care – but I’m telling you now they do.” A staunch believer in maintain the highest standards for his traveling flock, Mr Hyde is keen to see BAA’s Heathrow animal reception centre expanded. “It serves its purpose as it stands,” he comment…
…anos and the such downstairs. It is very grand though. Up the impressive staircase, the upstairs is more like a museum as this is where they have the displays of the clothes. The rooms have been converted to have glass displays and the such. There are dressing up and activity sections to keep kids happy and engaged.Considering the size of the collection, you did feel the displays could have been greater. But saying that, they had on display a rang…

This is the life indeed! Amazing. Took loads of photos and…
…nstead of being on the 11th floor was on the 8th. Also it has the quietest air-conditioning I have ever come across. This for me is a huge plus as I hate noise and so often have to sleep with the air-con off and here it is so quiet you can leave it on. · The staff are all very efficient and helpful · The fitness center on the 14th floor is a good size, with a good range of modern equipment. I liked staying here, but it is hard to see it is a good…
