We arrived in
Southampton early this morning apparently on time which was first
time this trip that we actually did. Now this CO gets to leave! We
were able to have a nice leisurely breakfast before we headed to our
assigned departure room. We had a chance to give a hug to Laura and
have a talk with Carla one of the Zumba instructors. We made sure we
told both of them how they made the cruise so much more fun. We were
able to depart the ship find our bus and head to the airport quickly.
It was probably the easiest departure from a cruise that we have ever
had. We were at the airport and checked in in short order before the
3 hour wait for our plane.
The flight time
was over 8 hours as we were non stop Heathrow to Detroit. We flew
Delta/Virgin Air – a very nice international airline. We actually
had leg room. The wine was free flowing and the serving portion were
generous. The movies were up to date. With the over 8 hour flight
we even had time for a nap as there was a 5 hour time difference
between London and Detroit.
No paper work to
fill out on the plane as it is all done at a kiosk in Detroit .
Customs and Immigration went quickly and after our good friends pick
up, we were back in Windsor by 8pm. So another cruise officially
ends. That is 20 on Princess! Thanks to all who left messages and
emails about our trip. No plans for the next one -yet! So with the
5 hours time difference, bed came early!
