June has brought us on another cruise!
This time we took the Eavesway Cruise Link to Southampton to board Fred. Olsen's Borealis for 14 nights heading to the Baltic. Can say it was a long journey but the driver's were so helpful it made it an easy way to get to Southampton (but the 5.45am start was a little early)!
Arrived in Southampton and quick and easy embarkation. As we were later arriving the buffet was closing so quickly grabbed some delicious salad which we ate by the pool. The luggage had arrived in the cabin when we went back so it was time to unpack. Dinner was delicious and we celebrated Anne's birthday too. I finished unpacking while everyone else enjoyed the show. We even managed to do the quiz (but not very successfully)! We then retired to bed as everyone was shattered after all of the travelling - and we had to advance our clocks by 1 hour too!
Today has been a relaxing day at sea as we sail towards Copenhagen. Mum enjoyed Friday's fish and chips and I had my first burger - it was delicious.
After lunch it was brilliant to enjoy sitting out on the back deck - until the dark clouds arrived. Time for a short nap before it was time to get ready for dinner. A few photos of the Captain’s Welcome Onboard cocktails party and dinner. So happy to see our waiter had been promoted (he loves taking selfies). Everyone is enjoying the show and I am chilling before putting my brain into gear for the next quiz.
Enjoying making more memories with mum and wonderful friends.
