Balmoral & Azura

A good sunrise this morning but the 'sparkly bits' didn't quite reach the Balmoral and only Sark got the warmth. She enjoyed a long day in Guernsey having arrived from Southampton, and just after tea time she left for Honfleur. La Coupee which joins Little Sark to Sark is the flat part of the island behind the middle of the liner. It is just wide enough to take a horse and carriage and is not for the vertigious.


No rays of light for the Azura as the sun disappeared into clouds for the rest of the morning. With the pilot on board she heads for the anchorage position where she will spend the last day of her cruise having visited Lisbon and other west coast ports in Spain and Portugal.


Guests on board the Balmoral took advantage of the Bank Holiday weekend  to enjoy a three night cruise to Guernsey and Honfleur from Southampton. Both liners tower above the roof tops of St Peter Port on a grey Sunday afternoon.
