It is a big one Emma :) We’ve kind of got used to the balcony not being right over the sea, but we definitely prefer to be a bit closer to the sea than set back. Having said that, this balcony is a lot closer to the sea than we would be if we were at home 😂 Have a lovely evening, Linzi and Mark
awwwwww..you're on your way. just fabulous. It would seem that wine flight went down well haha. its another early hours watch for me ( 02:30) so, im guessing you will be sound asleep now, dreaming of an awesome two weeks ahead of you. have the best time, and it was ,lovely hearing from you so soon into the cruise..take care...Terry x x
Hi Terry, the wine flight went down too well. We've tried a few different flights too since then including two lovely Gin ones yesterday. It's been so good to be on a longer cruise again, we don't feel we have to cram everything into a few days and can take things so much easier. We've got our live stream coming up this Sunday (5pm UK) from Iona in Barcelona which we are really looking forward to and trying to decide what cocktail to have for that. Suggestions welcome 😁 Have a lovely day Terry and we hope the weather is less miserable at home now Linzi and Mark
@@SuiteNatured oooh, a gin flight sounds great - I shall look out for these flights on my next cruise. you are getting me into bad ( good ) habits haha. As for some cocktail suggestions - my current favourites are the "Laverstock" which is: 35ml Bombay Sapphire 15ml Martini vermouth 10ml elderflower cordial or St Germain liqueur 75ml ginger ale wedges of lime, Slice of ginger,Sprig of mint The Alabama Slammer - really nice :-) 1oz Southern comfort 1 ounce sloe gin 1 ounce amaretto 2 ounces freshly squeezed orange juice Garnished with an orange slice And lastly my dears - I cant remember the exact name of this, I think its something like - Sea Breeze? which is a simple, refreshing cocktail, consisting of Midori and Malibu in equal measures, with a lemonade/sprite top! there we go - I hope you like the sound of one of those, and hopefully get to the live on Sunday, if I cant for some reason, Ill be watching it in the wee small hours of Monday Morning. Hope you are still having a fabulous time - Ive just had a root canal treatment at the dentist - so, will be needing a cocktail or four to ease the discomfort this evening haha Terry x
Thank you for those suggestions Terry. We love the sound of the malibu one. We had read the blog of you Dentist adventures, hope the root canal is not causing too much discomfort and that you managed a few "medicinal" cocktails. Cruise still going great and we won tickets for the Gary Barlow show tonight at 10 pm so super excited to see him in such a small venue. Take care and hope to see you Sunday 🤞 Love to all Linzi and Mark
oo@@SuiteNatured oh wow.. Im chuffed for you that you got the Gary Barlow tickets, thats brilliant - and you actually are both going, not fighting over the one ticket haha..toothache much better now thank you, and feeling a lot chirpier. looking forward to tomorrow ( Sunday ) To hopefully catch you both in Barcelona x
Thanks Doreen, we did find them thanks to someone telling us straight after the video published so we got to use them during the cruise. Linzi and Mark
If you've not found them yet, i think there's USB beneath the lights beside the beds!
Thank you Ruben. We hadn't found them bit we have now. Linzi and Mark
That's a huge TV! I'm with you about liking to see the sea straight off the balcony as well 🌊
