This was our second "non-fly" cruise.
We joined a coach at Trowell Services on the M1 which took us to Southampton where we boarded Sapphire Princess to start our cruise.

To avoid visiting madeira at the same time as Storm Leslie, our captain decided to cancel the visit and proceed directly from Vigo to Lanzarote.
