Rare MicCanberra Posted July 6, 2016 #301 Share Posted July 6, 2016 Hi we are on the Sea Princess at the moment and yes we missed Warnemunde because of very high winds. The port closed and no vessels were allowed in or out. We are heading straight to Dover now for an extra day there. Angie Thanks for the update, I had looked at the weather and it looked fine, doesn't show wind though.:o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

icat2000 Posted July 6, 2016 #303 Share Posted July 6, 2016 I would be very happy to get an extra day in Dover if I was on that ship. Happy Camper instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angie Yes I saw that on Angie and Paul's blog last night but too weary after tripping around Kent countryside to post on...have a good run around to Dover and we are so looking forward to boarding on Saturday. Made the mistake of visiting the huge Outlet Centre at Ashford yesterday and now have some more gear to ship back with us...thank goodness there is no weight limit!

LC1950 Posted July 7, 2016 #308 Share Posted July 7, 2016 (edited) According to 'Mr Google' 2 hrs 47 mins by car from Dover to The New Forest. Just under 3 hrs to Stonhenge. This of course is not taking traffic conditions into account. For Aussies that's just down the road.

Rare MicCanberra Posted July 9, 2016 #315 Share Posted July 9, 2016 The extra day in Dover was a good substitute despite missing the German port and the next itinerary isn't too bad either, I like transatlantics. All part of cruising I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
