We had to be up at 6.30 this morning in order to have our breakfast and pack up our suitcases and be ready to meet our driver in reception at eight o’clock. Today we were due to travel to Dubrovnik, and our itinerary showed us that there were lots of things to see and do…
After an excellent night’s sleep, we got up at 6.30am and got washed and dressed and ready for the day ahead. A quick look out on our Juliet balcony let us see that the sky was blue and cloudless and the air was warm, even at this early hour. We enjoyed a full and varied…
Dear readers, you will no doubt be surprised to see another holiday blog entry so soon after the last one, and indeed it is a record for us to be taking another trip only a fortnight after we came back from the last one! But we are certainly not complaining, and we are surely making…
Had a bit of a lie-in this morning, as neither of us slept particularly well last night. Not only was the room fairly noisy (despite the ear-plugs) but it was warmer than we like it. So we didn’t get up until around 8.30am, and went out onto the tiny balcony for a vertiginous view of…
Got up this morning at 7.00am as we needed to vacate cabin 6062 by eight. Going out onto our balcony for the last time, we could see we were already docked in the beautiful city of Barcelona. We were pleased to be back here; it had been over 20 years since our last visit, and…
As usual, we got up at 7.30am and got ready to go down for breakfast. The weather forecast had told us that Storm Barra was on the way and to expect very strong winds and torrential rain later on, around one o’clock. Today we planned to visit the Sea Life centre, which Google maps told…
After a decent night’s sleep in our draughty room, we got up around 7.30am, as breakfast was served in The Mariners’ House between 8.00 – 9.00. As we walked into the dining room and were shown to a seat by the window, we were delighed by the amazing sea-front view, over several eclectic rooftops. A…
Scarborough? Yes! Not Scarborough, Tobago, in the sunny Caribbean, oh no. Nothing that exotic. I’m talking about Scarborough, North Yorkshire. 🙂 Not that there’s anything wrong with this quintessential English seaside town on the North Sea – it’s a very popular place in the summer months and we have visited often. But it’s not the…
Got up at seven o’clock and had a shower and got dressed before making our way down to the dining room for breakfast. The coach was coming to collect us all at 8.00am to take us back to the airport. How our four nights in Poland had flown! After breakfast we returned to our room,…
Got up about 7.15am today, as we had to be breakfasted and ready to go by eight o’clock for today’s excursion, on our last day in Kraków. As usual, we enjoyed a plentiful breakfast washed down by good hot coffee. Masked up, we then made our way through the hotel foyer and assembed with the…
