By the time we arrived in port, we had done 2014 nautical miles.

Breakfast started at 5.30 this morning so that the early leavers could partake before they left! The cooks etc must have been up all night, as one said a few days ago they start at 1 am to get ready for the 7 am opening.

Sat on the peaceful deck reading for a while, then headed downstairs as all the continuing cruisers had to meet in the Schooner Bar. We had to wait until all the other travellers had departed, which from the announcements asking people to leave must have been like herding cats! There are about 80ish of us staying on, so we finally went down the gangway into the embarkation building. Had to show our passport and then get our new sea pass ID cards. Eventually we then once again had our pictures taken for the ID and then let back on board. Even though all the staterooms are closed off until 1 pm, as I had the same room, I was allowed to open up the ‘fire door’ and get back to my room.

Actually had a formal lunch today as just us ‘back-to-back’ cruisers were assigned one of the main dining areas to ourselves, which was very nice.

Now going to have shower, dinner and Mamma Mia, so will catch you later!

 Fort Lauderdale docks! Most of our route!
