"Arcadia" & "AIDAaura" departing from Southampton - 05/05/2016

Thursday 5th May 2016 saw the return of P&O Cruises' "Arcadia" to Southampton Docks following her World Cruise. It also saw the return of AIDA's "AIDAaura" which last visited in 2008 I believe. "Arcadia" was the first to leave from the 'Mayflower' Terminal at 16:48 on a 6-night cruise around Western Europe returning on Wednesday 11th May. "AIDAaura" was originally due down for 18:00 but was put back to 19:30 and ended up being delayed again due to the arrival of the Hapag-Lloyd Container Ship "Kobe Express" and ended up leaving at 19:44. This was her only port of call on a 7-night positioning voyage from Palma to Hamburg. Viewed from Mayflower Park.
