QM2 TA & Caribbean 2019 Sea Days

Day Eighteen – Still Heading North

09/12/201909/10/2023

Today is probably the last chance for some sunshine today, now that we’ve left the Caribbean, it’s a bit cooler, and the wind has changed to a north westerly so it’s a bit breezier than yesterday. We spent the morning, post breakfast, upstairs in the Pavilion Pool which was nice

Day Nineteen – Our Final Sea Day

08/12/201906/08/2021

It’s our final day on the ship today, and we are definitely getting nearer New York. We have a grey sky and squally showers passing and the temperature has now dropped a fair bit overnight. We went to the Pursers office to get some more luggage tags for disembarkation and

The Fun Begins

18/11/201906/08/2021

We’re all set for this year’s cruise to the Caribbean. Work has been finished and we took the train this afternoon, from London Waterloo to New Milton, in the New Forest, where Jane’s dad lives. The only thing left to do is for me to have a haircut tomorrow morning

15th November – Final Sea Day

16/11/201809/08/2021

Our last day at sea turned up a bit grey and miserable, but it was warm enough and the sea was flat as a pancake. It was the calmest Biscay crossing that we’ve probably ever had, a markedly different experience from the sail out from Southampton. There were three of

14th November – At Sea

15/11/201809/08/2021

It was a glorious morning, we woke to clear skies and a calm sea. As it was a sea day I had three lectures to attend in the morning, so it was a bit of a rush to get ready and off to breakfast before my 10am start. The first

13th November – Lisbon

13/11/201809/08/2021

It is our final port day today, the beautiful city of Lisbon. It was another clear sunny day, a little bit of a fresh breeze, but very nice out in the sun. We had booked a shore excursion for today, Urban Adventurers walking tour of Lisbon. After breakfast we headed

12th November – Gibraltar

13/11/201809/08/2021

It’s a grey old day in Gibraltar the peak is obscured by a swathe of cloud. We were missing a couple of diners last night, so there were only eight of us. The food was excellent yet again, sweet corn chowder and sirloin steak for me, spring rolls and roast

11th November – Cartagena

11/11/201809/08/2021

Another glorious morning here in the Med. We’ve arrived in Cartagena and it looks like it’s going to be a good one. Breakfast was much more successful today, I had Eggs Benedict and Jane had a Smoked Salmon and Cream Cheese Bagel, very nice. After breakfast we disembarked to walk

10th November – Malaga

11/11/201809/08/2021

It’s a lovely start to the day. We arrived in Malaga to clear skies and bright sunshine. We had decided at dinner last night to have an early start, and pop into Malaga for a quick look around before returning to the Victoria for a bit more sunbathing. I turned

9th November – Cadiz

09/11/201809/08/2021

This is the third time we’ve visited Cadiz over the years on Cunard. It’s a beautiful city and as flat as a pancake, so really easy to get around on foot. We awoke to a bright blue sky with the sun just rising over the rooftops. After a leisurely breakfast
