We woke up around 07:00 for our last sea day. For me, it does not matter how long the cruise is, on the last day of the cruise, I am always miserable. I think even if I was going on a world cruise, I still would not be ready to get off at the end of the…

We woke up around 07:00 again and things felt a lot calmer. We got ready and then headed up to the Windjammer for some breakfast. Graham had fried egg on toast and scrambled egg with shrimp on toast. He also had some oatmeal with dried fruit and some coffee. I had a bagel with cream…

This was the day I was celebrating the big 5-0. We were awake around 7:00 again. Things were decidedly bumpy that day. It is a good job that neither of us gets seasick. We got up and ready and then headed to the Promenade Cafe for some light breakfast. We had plans for lunch and…

  We were awake around 07:00 again. We took our time to get up and ready. Then we went for some breakfast. It was quite bumpy that morning and the pools had been emptied. As there was no prospect of aqua aerobics, we had all the time in the world. We decided to have breakfast…

We were awake just after 07:00 and took our time getting up a ready. While we were getting ourselves organized, there were two announcements within a few minutes of each other for somebody from deck 8 to contact guest services. This was kind of strange. This is pretty common on port days when people are late returning from…

  I had expected that we would be awake at the crack of dawn, but we woke up shortly after 7:00. We got up and ready and then headed up to the Windjammer for breakfast. Graham just had some fruit, and I had bagel with cream cheese and roast turkey. This was delicious. After breakfast, we…

This was our last port day and therefore a bit bittersweet. Even though we still had half the cruise ahead of us, I knew that after this day, the next time I would see the ship from the outside, I would not get on again. Still, this was the port that along with Barcelona I…

After four port days in a row, we had a sea day prior to our final port day the following day. We had figured we would have a lazy day in our future, but this was not quite how it worked out. It was hugely enjoyable though.  We woke up at about 7:30. We got…

This was the last of our Spanish port and the fourth port day in a row. I was a bit torn about this and was in two minds if I should even get off the ship that day. When we originally booked this cruise, Malaga was the port I was looking forward the most as…

After a lazy day the previous day, we had an excursion booked this day. Our port of call that day was Cartagena. We were up just after 7 and got ready. As our tour that day included food, we did not want a proper breakfast. We went to Cafe Promenade for a coffee and a…
