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 taps me on the shoulder. It’s Margaret and her husband, 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!
Villa Garcia de Arosa, north-west Spain tomorrow…

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’s no sponsored links nor adverts here – it’s all done with love!
I hope you find it enjoyable, interesting and occasionally, even helpful!
