Set sail in the late afternoon into the sunset, standing on the bow if the ship, fabulous views of the harbour and the many aircraft carriers moored here.

Lovely dinner with two couples, one from the Netherlands and the other from Vancouver. Followed by a few drinks in the bar listening to Marcel, the piano player.
