Dear diary,
Last Sunday morning, Aunt Emily made an announcement. She told us that she was going to take us on a cruise! I was very surprised, knowing how expensive a holiday like that could be. However, we agreed. We aren’t a wealthy family, but we do have a little money put aside, over the years, which we usually use part of, for vacations.

When the day of departure finally arrived, We were thrilled to see how huge and luxurious the ship was. Our cruise liner sailed distinguishly out to sea, as our holiday began.

What a disappointment! There was so little to do on board. The boredom almost drove us mad. We visited several ports, but we didn’t have the freedom to do what wanted to. Furthermore, we had to follow a very tight schedule of guided tours an visits to museums. It was an uninteresting experience!
