Day 2

Up at about 0815 after hot night. No. Not that sort of hot. The room was like an oven or maybe a sweat box. We had the fan running most of the night.

Full English as we have no idea when we are getting onboard ship to start our week of eating and drinking 24/7.

First stop Solent Sky Air Museum. Small museum but packed with planes and history. Well worth a visit.



Took photos but most of them on the Canon. I'll add them later.

So off to Town Quay. Parked for a couple of hours ..

Blog moved to Travellerspoint

I decided that trying to maintain different platforms for the blog(s) was getting difficult to maintain and so I have decided to move all the travel blogs to Travellerspoint. All the vehicle specific blogs such as "Suzi Triplo" will stay in Blogger. Only any that are travel oriented such as "Cruising" and "Devall Travel" have been given up and entries in future will be in  The new home of Devall Travels . Travellerspoint

The service from the crew was as expected top class.  It sounds snobbish (for a working class bloke!) to say that although I enjoyed last year's Norway cruise with P&O, Saga tops them for service and that idea that cruising is still a rich person's holiday. It's not of course. Before that we had a coffee in the cruise terminal.  We went with friends, Ulli and John, but didn't get on the tour with them. The ship is really nice and we had a trip around all the decks and a view of the cabins. This will be an all-inclusive ship and for us oldies, it's free of children!   As it is almost new the show cabins were actually just cleaned as the ship was just back from a cruise, in fact the...
