2023 Daily Reports Port Days QV Greek Islands 2023

Santorini – Day 10 – Oct 10th

15/10/202301/11/2023

Today’s Daily Programme can be found here… It was bright and sunny this morning and when I opened the curtains of the stateroom we were already in Santorini. I’d have said moored up, but as the bay at Santorini is 400 meters deep, I think that is beyond our anchor

Cephalonia, Argostoli – Day 12 – Oct 12th

13/10/202309/03/2024

Today’s Daily Programme can be found here… We’d had a massive electrical storm overnight, to be honest I’d not noticed a thing and slept right through it, but Jane said it was spectacular. When I finally woke it was a lovely morning with beautiful views over Argostoli. The early shore

Cagliari – Day 14 – Oct 14th

11/10/202301/11/2023

Today’s Daily Programme can be found here… We had a busy day ahead of us as we’d decided to take an excursion in Cagliari. I had really fancied a walking tour around the city, but the only walking tour was a hike up Devil’s saddle and I really didn’t fancy

Lisbon – Day 17 – Oct 17th

08/10/202301/11/2023

Today’s Daily Programme can be found here… You could tell we were no longer in the Mediterranean when I woke at 3am, the ship had started to move about quite a bit, this was no longer a millpond we were on. I went back to sleep and when I woke

Disembarkation – Day 20 – Oct 20th

04/10/202323/10/2023

We’ve finally arrived back in Southampton, breakfast was early and due to close at 08:00, so I had set my alarm for the first time since leaving and after one last shower we headed up to the PG restaurant for one last time. We’d been to see the Grills concierege

2023 Daily Reports Port Days QV Amsterdam Short Cruise 2023

V325 – Amsterdam Short Cruise 15th September – Embarkation

21/09/202329/09/2023

We’re back on Victoria for the first time since our Western Med cruise back in 2018, and back in Britannia for the first time since the post Covid “Cruise to Nowhere” in 2021. We took this short cruise because we needed three more days to reach the Diamond loyalty tier

Amsterdam Overnight – Sept 17th – Day 3

19/09/202329/09/2023

Jane had asked Cecilia, our cabin steward, if they could have a look at the air-con yesterday, as the room was too warm for a lady of a certain age. I can report that it’s fixed because it was freezing overnight and I was fully wrapped up in the duvet

Disembarkation – 19th Sept – Day 5

17/09/202329/09/2023

Our returning berth had been changed from the Mayflower to the Queen Elizabeth cruise terminal. Our only experience of this terminal was not a good one with train movements causing traffic chaos and extensive delays to cars arriving at the terminal. So naturally we were worried since our train was

Barcelona and Embarkation – Day 1

14/09/202206/08/2023

This is our first fly-cruise, and because we had a lot, and I mean a lot of bags, we had decided to stay in a hotel at Gatwick, dropping our bags off the night before which would allow a fuss free journey to the plane via security in the morning.

Cannes and Antibes – Day 3

12/09/202206/08/2023

We were woken at 06:30 by the screeching of a pump of some kind just outside our stateroom. I had an alarm set as we had an early start with a tour out to Old Antibes at 08:45 but this was just a bit too shrill and early for me.
