Southampton

Boarded the ship ‘Aurora’ in good time with a minimum of fuss and headed off to the restaurant for lunch. Pretty good with a waiter who kept filling up the wine glass. I shall have to look out for him again! Our friends Ian and Clare were on the QE2 heading to Perth, Australia and which was berthed just in front of us. Just before we both departed there was a good fireworks display which set the scene for our adventure. They left just before us and we departed at approx 1740 hrs. The weather forecast is pretty good with a slight swell and some movement expected as we enter the Bay of Biscay tomorrow.Baca lagi
