Royal Portbury, Bristol

Today, we joined the CMV cruise ship Magellan on its two week voyage to the Mediterranean. We travelled down from North Yorkshire yesterday, staying overnight in a Travelodge near Bristol. Doing that takes some of the pressure off; I’ve had enough near-misses, when I’ve been caught up in stationery traffic, worrying that I’m not going to make it to the...

Last Sea Day
