Easter is here again and this time last year my husband, daughter and I were relaxing aboard Cunard’s Queen Elizabeth, cruising for 6 weeks on 2 sectors of the World Cruise.
As is usual on Cunard, no expense was spared in the lavish decorations that were made with real chocolate Easter eggs.
Everything looked and smelt too good to be true…
We were lucky enough to take a behind-the-scenes tour of the galleys where we caused a traffic jam in the Pastry Section…
Because we came across just a few Easter eggs that had our jaws open in awe…
And then we came across this sign…
But that didn’t stop us believing we would still be treated with an Easter feast by these wonderful staff of chefs…
Until, on Easter Sunday morning, we found these in our stateroom…
… these tiny eggs, that fit into the palm of my hand, were sadly not made by the lovely Cunard chefs and were past their use-by date too.
Have you had an Easter (or other holiday) that wasn’t what it was cracked up to be?
Wouldn’t care if we got eggs or not just wish we were on her today for our cruise around Australia
I agree Lynn; these cruises with Cunard make up part of the patchwork quilt that is our lives and there will be quite a few patches missing from quite a few quilts this year. Let’s hope we can all make some new Cunard memories again soon.
Our Easter this year is not what we expected, today we were to be boarding the Queen Elizabeth for 27days celebrating our 50th Anniversary which is later in the year. Our first Cunard cruise 😥
Hope all the Crew and Staff are safe and well.
Oh that’s sad news for you Carmel. I do hope you will get to cruise with Cunard, and that you become a repeat offender, as we are. And wishing you and your husband a wonderful, albeit different anniversary this year.
