Thursday 1 September (Last day at sea)






Tried a new restaurant for a light breakfast (Moderno) which had thinks like waffles and the usual pastries, fruit, cereal etc Spent some more expensive time putting photos on (it is sooo slow - I suppose because so many people are using the wifi). There are lots of bargains happening but strangely, for me, nothing appeals. We are meeting John and Judith for special Jazz lunch in the French Restaurant at 12 noon and have booked the Italian for dinner so perhaps we will not eat at all for the 2 weeks we are in the UK. We have to have our bags packed and outside our Stateroom door by 1am. The Australian girl on the desk told us about a woman who packed everything an in the morning had to go down in her nighty to get clothes out of her case. We have been extremely fortunate with the weather on this trip. We were told in St Petersburg that 2 days without rain is a miracle and we did - but 3 days without rain is a miracle which does not happen. The only rain we had was in Helsinki. It can be frozen over at the end of August so it is practically a heat wave here. You would not know you were on a ship - there is actually NO movement at all. It has been a wonderful cruise - but probably long enough or I would not fit through the door.
