Fred Olsen MS Braemar Part II

Well our second sea day on our way to Leixioes in Portugal went a bit south as we had grey skies and some movement as we made our way across the bay. We did have a "Code Alpha" in one of the lounges we were sitting in today. The speed and number of crew who attended was very impressive.

We had a late night ( for us anyway) as the entertainment was a comedian ( he was billed as starred in the Comedians) but I did not recognise him. Some of his jokes I think came from the original TV Show as they were that old, but he was good entertainment, a quiz ( don't ask ) then a show from the Theater Company called "Happy Days", they do seem to be getting even better.

And so today we arrived in Portugal blue skies and 18C. We had booked a tour of the city, a boat trip, then a tour of a Port Cellar, with of course some tasting.

We did enjoy the tour, even though the city was a tad grid locked at times.

Which was also how the queue was to board Braemar, three coaches arrived back at the same time,full of passengers who had purchased bottles of Port, that had then needed to be stored for safe keeping by Fred, so it took a while.

So after lunch it was time for a beer whilst I posted the previous blog, and wrote this one.

So tomorrow is another day, and another country, namely Spain.
