A weekend in 'Paris' - Day 3 Going Home!

Sunday

I woke up at 0610 (according to my phone) and used the facilities. I checked ship time on my phone as the clocks had gone back, it matched so we knew we had to get up soon.

Rob got up at 0638 and we both wondered why his alarm hadn’t gone off (this should have been a sign) but we carried on getting ready.

We saw the QM2 sailing past at some point - Rob took this photo.

We both showered and finished packing our last few bits and were getting ready to leave our cabin. We double checked the time and it was 0630!

We turned on the tv to check ship time and it turned out that my WiFi hadn’t been connected and the ship time had been wrong when we checked earlier.

So, we’d got up an hour earlier than we needed to and now had nowhere to go!

We waited the hour until we were meeting everyone at the main dining room watching tv and resting.

There was quite a long line and had to wait a few minutes for a table of six but we were eventually seated at a table with a view of the dock.

We were brought coffee, menus and juice and tea was requested for most (I had coffee) while we placed our orders.

Rob wanted an omelette and our waiter was not happy as he said it would take longer (speed is definitely a factor on the last morning) but Rob persevered and said he would wait.

Most of the group had the express breakfast (which is similar to a full English) and I had French toast. Rob’s omelette actually turned up a couple of minutes after ours so it really wasn’t a big delay. Oddly I didn't get a photo of this very special omelette!

We also got a plate of pastries which I might have eaten two of!

Once we were finished we left the ship at about 0840, walking straight off and back to our cars where we were out of the car park by 0900.

We had a smooth journey home and arrived back by 1030, with no electric charging issues – having only used just over half a ‘tank’ on our trip.

We did our food shopping for the week and then relaxed in the garden room before doing our normal Sunday jobs.
