Below are pictures taken from Queen Elizabeth as she continues her journey south. The hot weather is here to stay for the time-being, and jolly good it is, too. Once again, I was sad to leave the joie de vivre of Cabo San Lucas behind.
Continued 11.46 hrs 9th July 2019
The first picture was taken as we boarded Queen Elizabeth from the tender. We had to wait a long time for the transfer vessel to arrive to pick up what had become a long queue, in now, very hot weather. The procedure for transferring guests ashore and back to the ship, was hampered not only by the swell, but, perhaps by the use of as few tenders as possible.
Tours were delayed with some guests (1 that I know of) “giving up” and staying on board. But, I felt that my persistence was rewarded with a most enjoyable (but fairly costly) “all you can drink” deluxe cruise along the fabulous rocky coast line. The vessel was clearly rigged as an evening dinner and dance cruise boat; I have been on similar in Dubai.
Dinner last night was a “smart-casual” affair. I changed accordingly only to find that the remaining six had chosen to dine elsewhere, and as I would ascertain, independently. I joined Denise for something to eat in the Lido. This was a most enjoyable change from our nightly gathering in the main (Britannia) restaurant.
Thanks for reading,
David.
