Creator's Key Takeaways

The weather was not too bad. It was quite windy, but as you'll see in a moment when we get round to the looking towards the bow of the ship that uh she's actually handling this with uh remarkable stability.

It was extremely busy. We were quite surprised because it hasn't been on other uh Queens we've been on, but it was still the same type of thing. really good food, nice sandwiches, nice cakes, and of course the scones.

To be honest, the evening entertainment was not that interesting. The only thing was there was a uh soul singer on later in the week who we saw on the previous cruise and he was very good.

As we came out of Lacerona, the Bay of Bisque was doing its uh finest. You can see here all the spray from the waves crashing into the land.

Creator's Tips & Advice

If the weather turns bad, don't be afraid to head back to the ship early and just write the day off.

YouTube Video Description

The day we should have been in Leixoes (for Porto) but for Storm Dave delaying our departure was spent at sea. We had a leisurely day, watching various things that Cunard put on, like fruit and vegetable carving and - I couldn't get into position to take any video - flower arranging. The day at La Coruña started cool and cloudy but warmed up later. We walked through town to reach the Tower of Hercules and returned along the coast road, past a sculpture park. After lunch we left the ship again and explored in a different direction, going to some gardens laid out near the port. Leaving port the sea was showing 3-4m swells, I estimate, which made the ship pitch more than we'd seen on other ships but she didn't roll at all, meaning you could avoid feeling queasy. This was a cruise organised by Paul & Carole Love To Travel for their YouTube and Patreon supporters. I strongly recommend their YT channel: https://www.youtube.com/@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel
