Good journey down to Southampton 🇬🇧, mainly due to Andrew Gibb texting Sheila to tell her that the A34 was completely blocked by an overturned lorry.
We where actually only a mile or so from the A34 exit off the M42.
So we stayed on the motorway and came around the M4, M3 etc.
Martin and Andrew where stuck for about two hours on the A34 😵.
Boarding the ship was very good and quick, after we'd braved the initial mob at the boarding gate doors.
We went to the concierge lounge last night, and the gang where all there, I won't name them all as there's two many, but I will just mention George and James, who I didn't expect to see as they'd not emailed me or anything.
Suffice to say, we should have an interesting cruise.Leer más

Happy birthday Sheila
11 de julio de 2016, Celtic Sea ⋅ 🌙 15 °C
We'd booked Chops Grill last night for Sheila's birthday, and had a lovely time.
Great company and a great meal.
We are crossing the bay of Biscay at the moment and it's a bit rocky.
So a lot of people will probably stay in bed late.Leer más

Sea Day
12 de julio de 2016, North Atlantic Ocean ⋅ ☀️ 31 °C
Still at sea and steaming for Gibraltar 🇬🇮.
The weather has improved, but still not nice enough to sit outside.
Anyway I spent most of the day in bed, as I've still got this flippin head cold.
I made it to the concierge lounge for the evening drinks, so I can't be that bad, lol.
We had quite a large company again, and did the usual furniture removing with the chairs.
The concierge Nadja, even commented on what a large friendly group we were.
Speaking of Nadja, she seems a lot better than the last time we met, and that was only 3 weeks ago.
Chatted to George Barritt most of the evening, so nice to see him and James again, must be a couple of years since we last met.
After the concierge drinks, we did the usual, bite to eat in the Windjammer and then bed.
Exciting times.Leer más

Well the MLife membership came up trumps again, 5 free drinks, a meal for two in Giovanni's, and no 5% charge when drawing cash at the casino.
Considering the membership is free, it's a definite no brainer joining.Leer más

Today we where in Gibraltar 🇬🇮, one of my favorite ports.
We had a nice stroll into town, and after Maz had bought some stuff from the pharmacy just by the square at the town entrance, we decided to have a walk down one of the side streets, as Main St was as usual packed with tourists.
We only walked along the next parallel street to Main St, which was Cannon Lane, but it made for a much more pleasant experience, as there were no crowds and it was quite shaded, which was a welcome relief from the sun.
At the end of the lane we turned back on to Main St and had a drink at The Royal Calpe pub.
It's quite nice in there and we've been a number of times before.
After that it was a stroll back to the ship for a sleep before the evening drinks.Leer más

Villefranche-Sur-Mer
15 de julio de 2016, Francia ⋅ ☀️ 18 °C
After an uneventful day at sea, and quite rough and rocky night, this morning we arrive in Villefranche - sur-mer 🇫🇷.
This is the port for trips to Nice and Monaco 🇲🇨.
Now today there are two problems.
1, the weather, as it's a tender port, if the sea is to rough we won't be able to tender in.
And 2, the terrible events in Nice yesterday, where there was a suspected terrorist attack, and 80 people were killed and many more injured by a truck, which drove into the crowds of people celebrating Bastille Day.
This will put a lot of people off going ashore.
There seems to be no end to the violence and killing, so called in the name of religion.
On a lighter note, soft arse (me) fell over in the cabin the night before last.
I was trying to undo my shoe laces, with my foot up on a chair.
When I did a Del Boy and toppled over and hit my cheek on the table.
Needless to say, alcohol had a big part to play in the event.
Also I swear that the Captain swerved to avoid a fish or something.
That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it. 🤕Leer más

A quick update on yesterday.
With the attack in Nice and the state of emergency being declared in France 🇫🇷, it was decided that, we would not stop at Villefranche for everyone's safety.
So all day and night we've very very slowly sailed on to our next port, which is Civitavecchia in Italy 🇮🇹.
We have actually docked, so I'm guessing everything must be ok in Civitavecchia.
I know Sheila and Sue won't be getting off, but Maz and I probably will.
Oh yes last night we had a delegation go down to the casino to sort out the MLife membership.
Long story short, with an Mlife membership on every ship you travel on you are entitled to a free meal for two in any speciality restaurant, five free drinks in the casino bar and no charge for drawing cash out of your account.
Well obviously once the gang found this out they asked for my help in joining.
Now as diamond plus and pinnacle members they are entitled to the top platinum membership, which gives all of the above benefits.
But Royal Caribbean are saying as new members they are only sapphire level which gives none of the above.
But we have gotten hold of an official Royal membership chart which clearly shows we are correct.
So it's now been faxed to Miami. Exciting times, lol 😁Leer más

Civitavecchia, Italy
17 de julio de 2016, Italia ⋅ ☀️ 15 °C
When we arrived in Civitavecchia 🇮🇹, yesterday there where six other cruise ships in port. Five of them were our size or bigger, so that would have meant about 15 to 20 thousand people in the town, so I'm afraid I gave it a miss and stayed on board.
I'm guessing that the number of ships was because of the terrible events in Nice and also the attempted coup in Istanbul, Turkey 🇹🇷, the cruises had rejigged their schedules and all decided to do Civitavecchia instead.
Anyway today we are docked in Livorno, so hopefully I will get off for a mooch. We'll see.Leer más

Got to stop doing this!
Got to Livorno 🇮🇹 yesterday and because it was Sunday, expected everything to be closed.
Guess what? Wrong again.
Martin and Andrew told me in the lounge that evening, that it was a lovely place to walk around and that most of the shops and cafés etc were open.
Then this morning I read a comment that my mate Frank had put on Facebook saying that they have done Livorno up to attract the tourists who don't want to go to Pisa or Florence.
So lesson learned, I think I'll be getting off from now on.Leer más

Diamond lounge
18 de julio de 2016, Italia ⋅ ⛅ 19 °C
The other night we decided to try the diamond lounge, instead of the concierge lounge.
It's a much nicer lounge, mainly because it has windows and an outside seating area, which is ideal for the weather we have been having.
It's a shame on the suites concierge and the two bar servers down in the concierge lounge, as they have been lovely, but it is so much better upstairs.Leer más
