Good morning, good afternoon, and good evening to all our readers, wherever you are in the world! My husband and I are passionate about cruises and have enjoyed five wonderful voyages over the past few years. We are thrilled to announce that our next adventure is just around the corner in April, where we will explore the beautiful Canary Islands. This will be a first-time experience for my husband, while for me, it feels like a nostalgic trip down memory lane, having visited Lanzarote, Tenerife, and Gran Canaria during my childhood on all-inclusive holidays.
In anticipation of our upcoming cruise, I have decided to create a series of blog posts showcasing the unique charm of each port we will be visiting. From must-see attractions and hidden gems to the best places to eat, join us as we embark on this exciting journey together.

I could look at myself as a variety of animals. Below are some examples.
Lion – Lions sleep for up to 21 hours a day; if I could get away with it, I would, too!
Giant Panda – Pandas are notorious for being calm yet clumsy and have an adorable chubiness to them!
Golden Retriever – Known for their sudden bursts of energy, love of being praised and taking good boy naps!
