We had an easy morning slowly getting ready and checked out of our changed room and also they had repaired the air con so it was not leaking all over the floor.
We met an American couple in the Hotel also joining the ship and chatted to them for a time and then Noel watched the Wigan and Manchester City game on TV. We forgot to mention that on the previous day whilst sitting in the garden a tiny humming bird came to the little plants just where we were sitting and about two feet away and it was there for about four minutes and unfortunately the camera was in the room.
The taxi took the 20 minute journey to the port where the smart service kicked in and after checking in and passport control etc we boarded the Seabourne Sojourn and were able to go direct to the suite but the luggage arrived about one hour later and no time for a shower before the muster drill.
After emptying the suitcases we looked around the ship for a while and then went to the ‘sail away’ party for a few glasses and then had dinner in the sun at the Patio Grill.
After dinner we went to the ‘Club’ for a little light dancing and then back to the room quite late. A first impression of the ship which is apparently full is extremely good.
