I look forward to seeing the Photos, particularly because I was on board Oceana (short break cruise, Southampton : Zeebrugge : St Peter Port : Southampton.

The Zeebrugge night was "Formal night", an excellent Lobster dinner but a disappointing gala reception; I know that the English Channel is busy and the Captain may be indisposed, but not one ship's Officer at the cocktail party?

Weather in St Peter Port the following day was wonderful: my 4th time there and the first time not raining or foggy!

Tom O'Connor (guest cabaret) was as good as ever, but star prise to the ship's dancers who did a good "Queen" tribute (will be even better with a bit more practise) and an excellent tribute to the "Musicals".

Thanks Jochen, great photos!

Did you get any of Oceana and Artemis together? We tried to go forward on Oceana's top deck to get a good view of Artemis, but it was closed off for painting. Eventually we got through by using an emergency exit from the buffet restauirant!

When was the photo of Oceana and Arcadia taken?
