Debarkation & Princess Transfer to London’s Victoria Station

             Tuesday, 25 Aug 2015 – We awoke to our alarm at 6:00 AM.  After breakfast, we returned to our cabin at 7:00 AM to finish our packing.  We barely finished by 8:00 AM, the latest time that we were allowed to vacate our cabin.  We waited in the Vista Lounge until our disembarkation group was called and boarded our bus at 9:40 AM for our 2.5 hour scheduled trip to Victoria Coach Station in London.  At 11:30 AM, we arrived in the vicinity of our destination, well ahead of schedule; however, traffic in the area was so backed up, that it was 2:00 PM by the time we arrived at the station!  Actually, we never really made it into the station, but the driver stopped “very near” the station and unloaded our luggage in the rain.  We witnessed one of the passengers falling as he was dragging his luggage into the coach station.  Jesse and a couple of other passengers helped him to his feet.  In retrospect, Jesse thought that maybe he should have waited a few minutes to make sure he was not injured before helping him to his feet, even though he had said he was okay.

            We arrived at the hotel at about 2:00 PM, just in time to check in.  We will be staying in London for four nights before joining another cruise; however, we will cover those adventures with our next cruise.

            For now, we’re signing off from another GREAT cruise!
