No picture today. Yes I could have posted one from the ship, but having been on a ship like this several times before that did not seem very meaningful.
Our van came to pick us up before 10:00 and I was surprised by the heavy traffic on a Saturday morning as we made our way from London to Southampton so it took us a full 2 hours to get to the ship. There were no lines when we arrived and they were already boarding the ship so we quickly received our cruise cards and boarded the ship.
We did our customary tour of the ship, ate an excellent lunch in the buffet, and relaxed on our balcony (listening to Mack Bailey music) as we waited for the Sail-away party. Dinner was prime rib with pina colada soup after which we settled down for the night as tomorrow is a full and very busy day starting early since we need to be ready for our excursion by 7:30 am which means getting up by 6:00 for our tour of Normandy. And tonight is a 1 hour time change so we loose 1 hour sleep tonight as well.
