I enjoyed your travel diary. My first and so far only solo cruise happened in July. I enjoyed myself, and the only time I felt slightly out of place was when a dining room attendant asked if I was solo. I said, “Yes.” The attendant asked somewhat incredulously, “Why?” Other than that awkward moment, I loved people watching and reading books on deck with a cool drink. There are lots of ways to enjoy a cruise, as your travel diary highlights. Thanks for sharing!
