CRUISE FROM PORTUGAL TO ENGLAND. One way from south to north.

In the early spring some Cruise Ships are relocated depending on the weather. Like in the winter months, when in the northern hemisphere there is too much snow and the temperature is very cold, the ships relocate to warmer places, like the Mediterranean or the southern hemisphere; or the other way around.
These relocations are done once or twice a year depending on the ship's itinerary and usually do not get advertised much due to the fact that it is very difficult to get enough people for a very individualized cruise or for passengers going on a "one way" voyage.
This time, from April 8 to the 22nd, 2011, my good friend and neighbor, Carol Glau and I shipped ahoy on the Visions of the Sea, a Royal Caribbean Cruise Line, departing from Lisbon, making stops at La Corruña, Gijón, and Bilbao in Spanish land; La Rochelle, Brest, St. Peter Port and Le Havre -Paris day trip- in France; and ending in South Hampton, London where we visited the world famous Stonehenge.
I hope you will enjoy the short stories as much as I enjoyed the trip.
