Roemin Aboat

Another day spent cruising back to Southampton with more entertainment, photos and DJ eating.

Final stop was Hamburg and the huge market with lots of beer and mulled wine being consumed. The main market is in front of the Rathaus or town hall but there are many more scattered around the city.

Next stop was Copenhagen with the little mermaid and a walk into town to the Tivoli gardens. We walked around a lot round the picturesque harbour area and then to the gardens where we bought some more Christmas decorations including a set of Willies.

We arrived in Sweden in snow. A fleet of busses delivered us into the square where we were treated to lots of Christmas marketry  including a British Cheese and Pickle stall.

We spent the first day gently cruising across the north sea to Gothenburg.

We boarded the Queen Vic in late afternoon as Camilla Parker Bowles was the ships mother and had been for her annual lunch with the captain to commemorate the launching. This worked out quite well cos there were extra decorations and a choir singing round the piano.

Queen Vic in Copenhagen We had a last minute bargain cruise around the north sea Christmas markets in December. The ship was the Cunard Queen Victoria and we visited markets in Gothenburg, Copenhagen and Hamburg.
