Who Ever Thought They Would Actually BE on the Bay of Biscay? Really.

on deck criooedWe’re sailing from A Coruña to France today so no stops.  It should be a lazy day be we keep sitting with people at meals and the four or six of us close the dining room every time – for every meal.  Lots of interetsing people with amazing stories.  Can’t miss any.

We’re up on deck now though, by the pool; it’s a bit chilly but they give us big orange blankets and the sun is shining.  Right now Van Morrison is singing Have I Told You Lately That I Love You? and the pool has this soothing wave machine.  There are waiters bringing us coffee to ward off the chill.

I am still in the first Game of Thrones plus Mark Leibovich’s story about the battle to succeed Henry Waxman so I’m set (except that I’m very guilty to be at Winterfell instead of somewhere more learned) but I am having such a good time with them!

We were really ready for this day after all that exploring!  Tomorrow, Cherbourg and (depending on logistics, Mont St-Michel.
