NO18 - To cruise or not to Cruise

Hardly a Shakespearean conundrum but one for us.  Further enthused (read jealousy on my behalf) by my brother. Neill, and his mate Patrick being there as I write on their Scandinavian Tour, Claire suggested another cruise. She has wanted to go on another one and although I was a little hesitant before, I really enjoyed the Fjord Cruise with Saga. So we started the Google hunt. Where else? When we were in Stavanger in 2013 we were joined by the behemoth that was Cunard's Queen Elizabeth. A ship that dwarfed the smaller more intimate Saga vessel.   With the Council changing our employment rights so that we have to take the majority of our holidays in school holidays, and meaning that we now get lumbered with higher holiday prices from hotels to transport, the search parameters were more restrictive. We have found a cruise to Norway in August 2018 . It's aboard the QE sister ship Queen Victoria. Another floating city hotel.
