Milenium Dos has arrived:-

Elsewhere in Barcelona a beautiful view from Carnival Freedom's bow cam:-

But from her 'stern' cam not so pretty, with a worrying list

The quality of QM2's cam is so poor it's not worth showing the picture of Carnival Freedom.
These names are becoming a mouthful [fingerful] to type. One cannot just say Freedom any longer.

Busy day in Barcelona today. I just disembarked VOYAGER OF THE SEAS this morning. I watched as CRYSTAL SERENITY sailed in. In addition, NAVIGATOR OF THE SEAS was docked just behind us and of course the other ships mentioned and pictured. Quite a day.

Yes a busy day with QM2, Carnival Freedom, Asuka II who was o/n'ing last night, Navigator of the Seas, Voyager of the Seas, AIDAcara who was visible from QM2's cam once Freedom had left, SeaDream I & Crystal Serenity. SeaDream I and Navigator had overnighted from Wed.

I also caught Eurostar Barcelona on Crystal Serenity's cam.

Well busy morning. I was getting on the Voyager, and before that I visited the Serenity. I wasn´t particularly impressed about the ship-

It´s supposed to be a luxury company, but it´s too big, it has two sitting options, and no drinks are included (only softs and special coffees).

I would put it well behind other luxury companies like Silversea. I was quite impressed of the colourful Aida Diva, and Asuka (didn´t have the faintest idea of her).
