Tuesday, August 16
This morning was a bit of a rush, as we had to check out of our B&B by 11am, and that was when we had requested a cab to take us to the Cruise Terminal. Our host Guilia advised us as we were finishing breakfast at about 10:30 that the taxi would be here in 10 minutes! We scrambled to get the final things done before saying goodbye to Guilia and headed off to the Cruise Terminal.
There was more of a police/army presence today, especially near the port as there were 4 cruise ships in town. We navigated our way through check in, and we finally boarded the Oosterdam just before 12. We dropped our carry on luggage in the cabin and went to lunch, then had an explore of the ship as it is a lot bigger than what we have been used to!
We were half unpacked when we went to a welcome drinks reception, and then it was off to the emergency drill procedure. We finished unpacking and then it was dinner time - cruising is definitely the way to go!! Our balcony cabin is very nice and with the warm weather forecast we should be able to enjoy it a lot.
