If you have not made the voyage to the midnight sun before, make sure you add it to your bucket list.
Our flight from New Jersey to London was late in departing so we arrived in London late. Fortunately, we had booked a HAL transfer to Dover. The transfer took forever. We waited in Heathrow for about an hour until HAL got everyone together and then started the bus ride to Dover. About 20 minutes from Dover, the driver informed us that he had to rest for 30 minutes before he could proceed on. We arrived at the ship in time for the safety briefing. The transfer was the only low point in this entire cruise.
The sail away from Dover is beautiful as you can see how white the white cliffs of Dover really are. The opening introduction show in the theater that night was very enjoyable and an indication as to how great the overall entertainment would be on the cruise.
