Southampton

Arrived safely in Southampton on Tuesday and spent the night at the Ibis Hotel. Large comfy bed but room very cold. 
Got to the Ocean terminal just after 12.00, Wednesday. got through the paperwork quickly and made our way on board.Had a meal then made our way to our cabin, found our luggage and put our clothes away in the ample storage. The room size is very generous being almost twice the size of our bedroom at home. Strangely only 2' 6" beds though.
Thursday, the sea is quite choppy today and Mum a little queasy. Took a couple of her pills and was able to eat a small baguette after a couple of hours. NB now raining ! Both os had a good dinner though.
Friday, have cleared the Bay of Biscay and ships movement seems easier to me! Have now had two acupuncture session for my head pain, seems to be working ? Quiet day in cabin today, tomorrow we arrive in Lisbon
Love Mum & Dad
