My dad sent me an e-mail asking if I'd like to go on a cruise on the
QE2, as a family, in August. The itinerary is
| July 31 | Southampton, UK |
| August 1 | Atlantic Ocean |
| 2 | Lisbon, Portugal |
| 3 | Gibraltar, UK |
| 4 | Mediterranean Sea |
| 5 | Palermo, Sicily, Italy |
| 6 | Naples, Italy |
| 7 | Civitavecchia, Italy |
| 8 | Mediterranean Sea |
| 9 | Barcelona, Spain |
| 10 | Alicante, Spain |
| 11 | Malaga, Spain |
| 12 | Atlantic Ocean |
| 13 | Atlantic Ocean |
| 14 | Southampton, UK |
Whilst it sounds like a wonderful opportunity, the prospect of spending a fortnight on a boat with my parents isn't one that fills me with joy. Plus I absolutely can not stand being hot. So a Mediterranean cruise in August may not be the most suitable of pastimes for me. I think I'm going to say thanks, but no thanks. The thing is, for the fortnight after the one my dad specified, the boat goes around Germany, Norway, Denmark and the Netherlands, which strikes me as a much more interesting trip than the one he's interested in. Oh well.
