Day 6 - London/ Stonehenge/ Southampton

Up super early for our transfer to Southampton for embarkation. I found a bus transfer that stopped at Stonehenge on the way so a total win win. Brae had steered me to a podcast he listened to before going last spring and I’m so glad he did cuz those stories were way more mind-blowing than our guide. It was all kinda surreal and seemed like a perfect way to get to the cruise terminal. We drove through Salisbury and had a distant view of the Salisbury Cathedral which was pretty incredible - 365 windows (days in a year) and 8760 posts (number of hours in a year). Smoothest check-in on the ship EVER, but we ran into a bit of a weather issue and our departure was delayed…more on that later. We were seated for dinner with a lovely lady from Coventry who spends a lot of time cruising and had a wealth of information, as well as another couple who are also regular cruisers. Couple of martinis, trivia game, nightly show and we were done for the day.Read more
