January 7th - Navigation Channel



I’ve posted a picture I took off the TV navigation channel that shows you the route we took on the two evacuations.

You can see the stop we made in Halifax Nova Scotia, where we actually docked and then the trip to the first rendezvous spot before eventually heading back toward Nova Scotia to meet the helicopter.

The Captain is not promising we will be in to Southampton exactly on time but I imagine it will be sometime on Friday…just not 6:30 AM like the original plan.  For us it doesn’t make a difference, we’ve been to Southampton before and also done the shore excursions from there to Stonehenge and Windsor Castle. We were just going up to the mall and maybe do some shopping.

The seas were a lot calmer today and we actually saw the sun!  Our only ‘problem’ is we are setting the clocks ahead each day by one hour to get on UK time.  Dinner time (set seating time) is getting earlier and earlier for us as a result.  We may have to forego the dining room and go to the Lido just so we can eat later in the evening. 

Fred also wants me to mention that the weather and seas we’ve been experiencing are because we’re in the North Atlantic, and it’s common up here.  If you’re going to someplace like Bermuda it won’t be as bad. (note to Phyllis)
