I met Christian in Bishop's Stortford, as he'd been in a meeting in Surrey, and I was coming from Cambridge. He finished off a little work, and then we got on the road to Harwich. It was an uneventful drive, and we met Hugh at the ferry terminal. We parked the car in the long-term car park.
We checked in a couple of hours early, and made our way on to the ship, via a bus (the gangway was broken). We found our shiny cabin, and dropped luggage, before heading back downstairs to find some dinner. We found it in the posh restaurant (Metropolitan) on the ferry. It was a very nice dinner, despite me ordering one starter and getting another (asparagus).
I was exhausted (wine perhaps not the best idea for me), so Christian escorted me to bed, and went back downstairs to drink whiskey with Hugh. The shower was amazing, but the motion of the ship (I was in bed already as it started on its way) was a bit difficult to get used to. I did sleep, though.
