This year we are planning to [u]not[/u] travel far from home – maybe the odd week away but no long distance travelling.

However ….. today we went on board Volendam, a Holland America Line cruise ship – just for a wee look to see if we would like to cruise with them one day.

Sipping champagne late Friday afternoon overlooking Lyttelton harbour – I think we could be ready for another cruise – if not this year then maybe next!!

My lumix takes very bad indoor shots and this was very noisy – a good chance to have a play with the blur and distort filters.
