Preparation Update

Have had some lovely comments on the cruise critic website so a big THANK YOU to those that have been written and I hope that you all continue to enjoy reading about our travels.

To answer a question first. Yes. We have been keeping really busy over the past few weeks. Between raising MJ, work, shopping for clothes, toiletries etc and generally getting ready for the cruise. Almost finished our shopping and to do lists. But our major accomplishment has to be obtaining our visas for India.

Only our Chinese visas to do now. Unfortunately we have been told that we can only apply for these three months before travelling to China. Having kittens about leaving our last visa till the middle of December so we even contacted the London visa office directly and queried this!!!

We received our excursion brochure and luggage tags from the cruise company this week so another thing for us to read and even better it has lots of pictures for MJ to look at.

MJ has also had a busy month between nursery, reading about other countries (currently Australia and the Great Barrier Reef), enjoying two Halloween parties and eating way too many sweets. MJ's Auntie bought him his first tuxedo for Christmas and the cruise and we are looking forward to him wearing it.

Another milestone- It is really hard to believe that little man turns two this month.

Hope you enjoyed reading.
