Busy old day in port, 5 large cruise liners, 15000 people or so not including crew. Roads were really congested into port, cabbie was really fed up. Congestion also getting on board, took an hour to drop our cases & pass through security. Otherwise all good, had a snack & drink in the buffet, cabin is really nice, 2 big rooms right at the front of ship, view over the bow & to the side. Just trying to sort out dinner, Italian tonight. Just to cap it all Lil's nil, Arsenal one. Norris also good.

SOUTHAMPTON
Good run down to Southampton, lovely Uber to Waterloo, carriage to ourselves on the train - left home 11:15, in hotel 3pm. Cases are a bit weighty, packed for one months journeys in unknown weather! Good dinner in Slug & Lettuce, espresso martinis two4one for afters. Then off to the theatre to see Aladdin. Now lying knackered in bed - hoorah

ON OUR WAY
Travelling again, just back from Pompey, & now off to Southampton to board our cruise to USA & Canada.
Portsmouth was good, can you see what was making the ripple on the water. The Hovercraft was excellent, fast, comfortable & such a rapid turnaround, land, disembark, board & off again - all in 10 minutes. See Queen Elizabeth in the background?
