Many Years Ago In The Mid 1950s,

mom and dad talked about going on a cruise,

on a banana boat! there were always empty cabins on the boats and for a fee you could sail to the Windward Islands chain--St. Lucia, St. Vincent, the Grenadines, Grenada, and Dominica--for their banana production load the bananas and sail back, roughly 4 weeks each way, but we never went, 


I still fancy a cruise though and I have just found one I would like to take Diana on, aboard the Silver Whisper, the company Six Star Cruises, has created the world's most luxurious 124-day vacation, departing in Los Angeles and includes visits to 28 countries including French Polynesia, New Zealand, Malaysia, the Maldives and Mauritius, in case you get a little bored on board the cruise has a upmarket approach top food and drink, you can feast on Beluga Caviar priced at £4,000 per kilograme, and sip Da Hong Pao Tea harvested from 1,000 year old plants that are so rare that they cost over £2,000 per kilograme, yes it sounds just right for us, now where do we get the £8,000 per day ticket money from? to save you the math that is £992,000 each, £1,984,000 for the both of us, yes I know dream on!
