Oceans Club and Twinkle Toes

Posted on January 6, 2019March 28, 2022 by bollingerbabe

Got up at 8.00am and went out on the balcony to see what the weather was like.  It seemed a little breezier this morning (but still very warm) and, while the sea was still calm, we noticed more ripples on the surface and could feel a very slight motion from the Boudicca. We went down…

Lazy Sea Days

Posted on March 14, 2017April 2, 2022 by bollingerbabe

We got up about 8.45am after a good night’s sleep.  The sea was reasonably calm with relatively little movement from the Braemar, but the sky was pretty grey. I decided not to go up to breakfast but instead to make the most of the tea- and coffee-making facilities in our cabin, enjoying a cup of…

Forget About the Price Tag

Posted on January 20, 2014April 9, 2022 by bollingerbabe

We have started to take our Malarone prophylaxis tablets as, once we arrive in West Africa, we will be in a malaria zone. Today, however, would see another leisurely sea day before we reach terra firma tomorrow morning. The weather was sunny and warm, just what we’d been waiting for (we are, after all, now…

Rule Britannia!

Posted on July 18, 2013April 14, 2022 by bollingerbabe

The first thing we did when we woke up this morning was look out of our portholes to see what the weather was like.  Smaller wavelets indicated to us that the wind had dropped, and the sun was peeping out now and then through the fluffy white clouds.  So it looked as though it was…
