We're on our first of two days at sea before arriving in Portugal. As we head down the English Channel to the Atlantic Ocean we are definitely feeling the rougher seas. Being in the front of the ship on deck 6 we are close to the bow and definitely know when the ship hits a trough! Except for a few hours on our 2011 "Around England" cruise we have not sailed in the North Atlantic which has a reputation for being rough. This has to be the roughest seas we have experienced on all of our cruises.
Speaking of our balcony, in the afternoon the sea swells had calmed a bit so we can now use it. Either the ship is moving a lot less or our stomachs and legs are getting used to it. Probably a combination of the two.
Our room is nice, and the balcony is typical Princess size. One thing we like about the Princess small ships is that you get a small couch that you do not get when on the larger ships. I thought I'd include a picture.
Nothing major planned for today. Port talk in the morning, Bridge in the afternoon, formal night tonight followed by the production show "Do You Want to Dance". We did get a new table assignment and I *think* it's a table for two, but need to check that out in the dining room today. It's nice to think the 10 euro note I slipped to the Maitre 'D on Saturday was helpful...
