Our European Cruise Index and Itinerary
Below you will find the Index and Itinerary of our European Cruise Vacation. The Index includes links to the posts. Each post has a link back to this page or you can use the back/next links at the top and bottom of each post. Enjoy!
We had the good fortune to find 4 cruises that could be done Back-To-Back-To-Back-To-Back (B2B2B2B) all on the same ship with each cruise having a different itinerary. This allowed us to board the ship once and not debark until the end. Although each cruise required a check in, Carnival made it easy, so we didn’t have to leave the ship to do so.
We had a wonderful trip!!!
