I've never been on a cruise before. Not a one. But when my Mum Delia asked me if I'd like to join her on the AFC trip aboard the Celebrity Eclipse, the temptation to say yes proved too strong to resist. And I'm so glad I did!

What a fabulous event this year's AFC Festival was!Three days of world class nature art on the walls, forty signature members, talks, art, woodwork and sculpture demonstrations, owl and raptor displays, the Silent Skies mural and prints, fantastic live music and more.
