Host Hattie

Thanks for the correction

Oh dear Mr HH is here🤦‍♀️

It was the World Club Party tonight, we accidentally found ourselves in the queue to meet the Captain. As it was shorter we stuck with it ! He gave an entertaining speech and the canapés and sparkling wine were bearable. By the time we got to our table the 4 at the other tables were on their main course and chatting away like old friends. One of our reasons for having fixed dining is to avoid the nightly introductory conversations, certainly wasn't an issue as apart from answering my question about the sea bass (good if you like fish) we were completely blanked. Food and service were excellent again, we both had the Roast Beef and the advantage of no conversation was that I finished in time to see the beautiful sunset ! We went to see the folk duo in the Golden Lion and watched the lights of Morocco and Ceuta as we sailed through the Straits of Gibraltar.

We had room service breakfast again and watched the first lecture of the day live in the cabin. Wifi was a bit flakey so we went to buy bears 😄 and had a drink in the Chart Room while catching up with the essentials. I'd booked our Diamond lunch via My Voyage yesterday. We were shown to a window table, great view of the sunbathers ! We both had the chowder and the lemon sole with the sundae for me and the apple pie for him. We took a stroll along Deck 12, it was a very pleasant temperature and the Boardwalk Cafe was open and popular. There were still loungers available in that area. I went to the theatre to watch the RSC production and then spent the rest of the afternoon napping and enjoying the sun on our balcony.

Thanks but we're going to Sitges from Barcelona.

After days of glorious sunshine it looks a little cloudy for Pursuit's visit to Milford Haven. Photos from a contributor to the Shipping in Milford Haven group, posted with permission.

Internet was a bit slow in our cabin earlier but is much better in the Chart Room

This morning-

We enjoyed sailaway from Vigo on our balcony with the provided sparkling wine. I can't comment on the taste as we drowned it in Peach juice ! There were lovely views on the sail out. We went straight to dinner, both the other tables in our row of 6 were already full. Our immediate neighbours had booked for 8 o'clock but then given a pager ! Food was good again and there were some familiar faces in the area. We went to the show, the theatre was fairly full and the singer/comedian/impressionist was entertaining. I'd seen him on QV last year but he was new to Mr HH. We got a table in the Commodore Club, it was still fairly busy when we left around midnight.

Fencing is on offer today

This is the current offering

Not a harp fan then? Don't worry the pianist is there tonight.

Nice to hear from you @DaisyUK we had a lovely day thank you.

We had room service breakfast again. It looked like a lovely morning in Vigo. I'd found a bus tour online but hadn't booked as the forecast was for rain. We were a bit late leaving the ship as Mr HH had arranged a call with Osman to discuss his concerns with the dining arrangements. I dread to think what awaits us tonight 😂. We bought tickets for the tour 20€ each and people watched until it was time to leave. We had 3 stops, at a beach, country house and gardens and a viewpoint overlooking the city. We had around 15-20 minutes at each stop, we could have used more but it was a good introduction to the place. We were back onboard for 2pm, in time for small plates in the Carinthia Lounge.

No we don't have either of them, there were no bears on our last trip so our newest niece and nephew had cuddly ships !

Both 2022 and 2023 bears are currently available on QM2
