Monday 26th August

Well today is the day we are coming home... 46 days by sea!!! We spent a leisurely morning enjoying our last breakfast overlooking the canal in Venice.  After breakfast we were on a mission to stock up on  beef and wine before heading to the ship.  Mission complete from the local supermarket.  With our bags jammed packed we headed for the ship around 1ish via the vaporetta to the people mover which is a light rail system to the port then a VERY LONG trek to get to the ship.  Once on board we unpacked and headed for the dining room for a late lunch.  Our cabin is very comfortable and even more so after we had the king bed separated into two singles which gave us more room to walk around in the cabin.  We sailed out of Venice at 10pm which we watched up on deck and a late night to bed at 1am.  Not ideal when we had to be up early (6.30am) for our private tour to Lake Bled and Ljubljana in Slovenia.
