Sailing away from Belgium

The last day of the trip is always bitter sweet--we never are ready for it to end! After walking on cobblestones for about 5 hours, Bob's back was really hurting so he took a nap while I packed. Hard to get it all crammed in to go home and be sure the weight in the suitcases is balanced for checking at the airport. We decided we needed to have tea one more time as we knew no one would be fixing it at our house.
Out on deck for the sailing away from Belgium. A nice warm & breezy afternoon.

We had amazingly calm seas the entire cruise! Really spoiled us. We sail tonight to dock at 4 a.m. in Dover, England tomorrow.


After having a big tea we weren't ready to go to dinner very early so went to listen to the piano and have a diet Coke. While we were there one of the passengers, a lady about our age, got up and sang 4 songs. She was very good & Bob asked her if she sang professionally and she said she sang just as a hobby. Quite amazing.




And one last time to sit down and listen to the string music. They play several times a day and we always enjoy taking a few minutes to listen. From here we went on into dinner and to tell people we had met on the cruise "good bye".
