We docked at around 7am. Much cooler today, with a little rain. We’re told that the mighty Queen Mary 2 will be docking later. Sure enough, at around 9am, the biggest cruise ship in the world, slips into harbour…and there’s a big coincidence about to happen involving both ships!. An hour or so later, Ann and I are shopping in El Cortes Ingles…when someone tapped me on the shoulder. It’s Margaret and her husband Alan, ALSO on holiday, ALSO on a Cruise, ALSO docked in the same port. They arrived the Queen Mary 2 – How coincidental is that?
La Coruna is, in our view, a pretty ugly town, full of high-rise concrete blocks passing as dwellings of some sort – Yuk! The old part of town was much prettier though. The other thing we noticed was how busy the town was. Maybe it was the 5000 passengers from Queen Mary 2!
I got into blogging quite late in life, not publishing my first post until 2004 – well into my 40s! My lifelong love of technology and communication (in all its forms), together with a fondness for the art of writing seemed to be the perfect combination to contribute a few words to the online community. But I’m no Samuel Pepys! If you’re looking for deep and meaningful comments on a variety of subjects, then you’ve arrived at the wrong site! I only pen for pleasure! On average, my posts appear about twice per month, covering family & friends, cinema visits, eating out, holiday experiences and techy stuff. Oh, and as this is my hobby, there are no sponsored links nor adverts here – it’s all done with love!
I hope you find it enjoyable, interesting and occasionally, even helpful!
