Public areas and deck space very good.It is nice that the older ships still have the traditional spacious promenade deck. Good choice of food in buffet and main restaurant. Also enjoyed a meal in Sindhu (supplement payable). Weather mixed,could have been better, but nothing P&O can do about that.Really enjoyed the designated cinema it is a good option if you don't like the shows on offer.Ports of call where La Rochelle,Santander,El Ferrol and Guernsey. Shuttle bus needed to La Rochelle 25minutes. Nice place but not a great deal to see and do. Lovely beach in walking distance of where ship docked in Santander and plenty of shops too. El Ferrol would be a pretty port in good weather, unfortunately rained most of the day we were there. But we received a good send off with a band and musket fire from the towers at the port entrance.Town in walking distance of ship. We spent a few hours in the maritime museum,well worth a visit -entrance free but donations welcome.
