Took the shuttle from Victoria so embarkation was very smooth because we were the last to board. Even so there was time to eat before boat drill if you had wanted to. My cabin 6090 was sold as a superior single, actually contained two single divans and as such had ample storage space, very pleased with it.
Unlike on previous trips with CMV we did not actually go to our lifeboats, reason given was that it was a bit cold.... do hope this is not the start of a trend.
Dinner consisted of five courses and was of a good standard with efficient friendly service.
