We had booked a Western Caribbean Cruise, that will go as far south as the British Virgin Islands before returning to Fort Lauderdale, via the Dominican Republic.

 

 

The Celebrity Equinox is smaller than the Celebrity Edge that we sailed on last year and a lot more crowded. Yet, not oppressively so - little or no queueing.

Our 'stateroom' is similar (Click here to see the difference).

The first day was at sea, giving us time to explore the ship and to meet some other passengers, generally over dinner or perhaps playing trivia.  As usual on Celebrity ships, the food is excellent.

The evening entertainment is - entertaining.

Adolf Hitler and me

 

 

 

Today, with good cause, Adolf Hitler is the personification of evil. 

Yet without him my parents may never have married and I certainly would not have been conceived in a hospital where my father was recovering from war injuries.
