2. Upgrade!

I'm glad to report that everything ran like clockwork from the time the alarm went off at 5am to the time we arrived safely in Southampton, mid-morning.

We also had an added bonus just as we were about to leave home.  Having checked the Princess personalizer religiously over the last few weeks, waiting for news of our stateroom assignment and thinking we would not know until arrival at the pier, it finally came through. We had originally booked (on a guaranteed basis), an aft oceanview, obstructed view stateroom on deck 8, we have been upgraded to a deluxe balcony, midships on deck 14. Result!!!

Thus with an extra spring in our steps in anticipation of our embarkation tomorrow we have spent the time doing a little shopping in West Quay (and yes, John Lewis do have some of their Christmas decorations up), followed by a pub tea and a pint or two at a very smart local hostelry. 

Bed now calls!
