  • 1 Week on board P&O Aurora Cruising Spain & France (part 1 of 3)
    Here’s the big one! Join us for our embarkation day on P&O Aurora from Southampton; a sea day through rough seas on the Bay of Biscay that kept many passengers confined to their cabins, our independent tour of La Coruña, Northern Spain, speciality dining at the Beach House and Sindhu, breakfast and dinner in the main dining room, enjoying some of the bars, lounges and classes and much much more!

      Was about to say same. So ditto. Naughty Jamie. After the disaster last year when Ambience was delayed in dry dock and our December trip was transferred to Ambition, am now happy to report that we have booked on Ambience for this December - so there! 😊

    Tha hotel in Southampton looks amazing. Aurora looks lovely, very old school classic, but great. I have to unpack too, my ocd would drive me crazy. Great to see you got a swim! Oh no, too bad your weather didn't last - gotta love the bay of Biscay! Looked bracing on deck! La Coruna looks lovely. What a great start to your cruise. Cheers 🍻

    Hi, Jamie I love your videos so much. I am going to a cruise on 11 May ( one week after your) and no chance to meet ;-( It is the first time I have a cruise trip. One question to ask. I see you have a little nice plastic thing to put your luggage label inside. May I ask where you get it ? We need to buy it or it is from the cruise company ? Thank you. I am so excited to preparing the trip now.
    (opps, just revisit the video, the tag is from Amzaon. Great)

    I noticed you changed from m 1st dinner seating to the 2nd one
    What are your reasons and recommendations.
    I thought I might like 2nd sitting on our Norway cruise on Aurora in July
    What would you go on a Norway cruise.
    We like to look at the scenery out on deck as we sail out
    There are 4 of us in cabin so getting ready in evening would take longer.
    Worried about missing entertainment etc though
    Love your blogs and this one is very useful for us
    Thanks
