We got up early and had another excellent breakfast,
gathered our luggage and walked back to the Victoria Coach Station for a 9:30am
bus. We had originally scheduled to take
a limo with Petra and Jennifer, mostly because it was only slightly more than
taking the train for 4 people. However,
after someone posted about the bus being relatively inexpensive, we checked it
out and all 6 of us went on the bus. We saved roughly $150 for the four of us
and it was fast and efficient. We got to
Southampton at about 11:30, hopped into a cab (the ride was only 5,50 pounds to
the Crystal terminal). We would
definitely use this in the future.
We waited just a few minutes and then boarded the
Symphony. We checked our hand luggage and
then went to the dining room for the traditional lunch. As usual, Julie got the salmon and Bob got
the Cobb salad. We then explored the
ship (mostly to show Brenda and Alex where things where things were
located). Julie reconnected with the
Lido deck guys including Derek, Allan, and the rest.
We had our lifeboat drill at 5:30. We were originally scheduled for Open dining
at 6:30, but changed to Prego at 6:15.
The food (as always) was incredible.
Bob and Julie had their favorites of mushroom soup and lasagna. After dinner, we decided to skip the welcome
show and instead just hung out.
