woooo I'M Going to Ibiza !!!

So we have just docked in Ibiza.  Sun is shining and yes I am on the top deck enjoying the first sights and a nice coffee while the boys r busy sleeping their holiday away again.......never been here b4 but heard loads about it !!!  just telephone the cabin 2 tell my hubby we have docked..and he informs me the boys r up to!!!

Shock oh shock...the boys r all up and we r havin breakfast 2getha....1st time since we sailed. And they r joinin me n hubby wen we go ashore... 
Lol that was the plan...half an hr after leavin the boat they wanted 2 go bak...and we'd only just walked 2 the beach!!!!!  Tooooo hot .thirsty...bickering. ..was I really missing havin them accompany us

.they went bak so we decided to go to the shops.. got the water taxi into Ibiza town...to b honest (tbh) it was sweltering. ..lovly but sweltering. ..the 15 min boat ride was just what the doctor ordered. .the cool breeze off the sea was just lovly
We were dropped at the Marina...WOW... the boats harboured were truly outstanding. ..how the other half live.. ( bulldog was apparently due in 2nite...who eva he is)  my husband assures me I've seen him on TV ?? He pointed him out to me...and i wont be forgetting him anytime soon!!!!  He tells me its #PITBULL  not BULLDOG   lmao  Also #David guetta...i shrug...i dont no him either  lol                  
We walked roumd the shops and tbh i was pleasantly surprised....this isnt what i was expectin

So we r bak in the comfort of the ship...n Mr B has decided 2 av a go on the Florider!!! Evry credit...and theres more!!! Will keep u posted.....

In the Windjammer (dinin room on Deck 11 ) we learn that a family of fellow cruisers have been attacked in Ibiza and had their passports n possessions taken.not badly hurt but must b very traumatic for them....very sad and far too frequent on this cruise...also a older lady in awheelchair was pickpocketed in one of the other ports...

So back 2 happier thoughts ...its the pool party on top deck...yep lots of drunkenness and foolery ...so one guest thought he cud slide down the steps via the 2 bannisters...legs astride...yep u got the picture..not a pretty sight.and there's more.yep he falls flat on his back about a second after he started.   
.bump crash wallop to the bottom..on his bak...owch...he wont feel it til in the mornin tho!!!!!
Good night had by most...great music n company partyin under the stars on the Med..
(.this all inclusive definitley has something to answer for....never seen this amount of drunkeness onboard before...not all for the best either...young chidren left to their own devices, no adult supervision, )

Day 4....Land Ahoy!

Its Vigo Today

So arrived for my early morning coffee in the windjammer ( boys in bed !!!) and yes the view has changed some what...where there was water water everywhere as far as the eye could see... this has  now been replaced  with The Port of Vigo 

 and whats more important is that I now have Signal...yeahhhh

and yes the phone is notifying me of many messages from home, thats scary, several missed calls and messages, my daughter informs me that my daughter-in-law of 9 months has had her baby .....OMG...I have become a granma for the 5th time....since we sailed there is a new addition to our family...Delilah May came into the world safely on 25/08/2014 weighing 6lb 7oz (Thank U Lord )...Mother n baby doing well....so excited and tbh (to be honest) a li'l overcome that I am not their ( cant believe i've been a granma for 2 days already...lol )

       so my coffee is going down nicely as I take in my news from home....lovly views from the 'windjammer' ( this is the main eating area where there is a delicious selection of food for breakfast/dinner/lunch ) cant wait to go and tell the boys...let them sleep for now and i can enjoy my coffee!!!

So after we tuck into a hearty breakfast we join the ranks of the few thousand and we descend on the port of Vigo ( safe in the kknowedge that we r sure 2 encounter gangs of pickpockets known 2 b operatin in the area!!!  So with that comforting thought off we go..hopefully not to 2 'fill a few of their pockets or 2' !!)        

 Just to add insult to injury The good old British weather is still tailing us...yes drizzle in Vigo (unfortunatley not the Lemon Cake sort ) We are assured that rain in August in Vigo is very unusual....Oh well that makes me feel a lot better ( NOT).  But that is not gonna dampen my day!!!!  ( lol ) Oh no...i got a new Grandaughter  x

 and

So Vigo was lovly...weather cleared up,  had a nice stroll up n down the narrow streets, re-established our land legs,  popped into some beautiful shops including C & A..( no longer found in tthe UK ) had a nice coffee at one of the quaint cafes....( and fortunatly did not bump into any pickpockets ...)
