Mediterranean Cruise on the Arvia - Part Two

Part Two of a fourteen day cruise from Southampton around the Mediterranean on the UKs largest cruise ship, the Arvia with two of my sisters.
It took a lot of convincing for me to go on a cruise after the loss of my wife Chris. My sons also convinced me to take a camera and camera phone and to vlog it all.
I had no idea what I was doing and even though my son Matthew, vlogs it was something I wasn't sure how to do.
Hopefully you enjoy the videos and watch the other parts.

I can't wait. Had a bad day today, I had 2 steroid injections in my shoulders. No smiles. Then my husband said I have something to make you smile. You did it within a few minutes although laughing hurt but you are very funny. Thanks for making me feel better!
