  1. Today we were in Barcelona. We didn't go into the city centre, one because we have been before and two we had the little one with us on this holiday and we wanted to take her to the beach.

     

    After breakfast in the Windjammer we headed off the ship. Once out there was a taxi rank and the driver suggested the Olympic beach (I may have spelt that wrong) it was a beautiful beach and extremely clean. I will post some pictures soon. The little had a great time but for the first hour and a half would not let her feet touch the sand, I was the same her age lol. But after a while she got used to it and had a wonderful time. We stayed for just under three hours. The taxi driver came back for us and took us back to the ship.

     

    We ate lunch in the Windjammer then the wife and little one had a snooze. I played golf and basketball on the sorts deck and also did a couple of periscope's.

     

    Evening meal was in the main dining room then a quick drink in the pyramid lounge to end the day. The sea is currently a little rough do the ship is rocking and rolling.

     

    Tomorrow we are in Nice. I will post pics of today shortly [emoji4]

  2. Today was a sea day. The weather was excellent this afternoon which was excellent. The little one managed to get into the H2O Zone twice today yayyyyyy.

     

    We ate all of our meals in the windjammer today. I was a little surprised this evening to find the windjammer pretty full. It seems quite a lot of people are choosing the windjammer over the main dining rooms. I must admit the food does seem better in the windjammer and I have noticed the portions in the main dining room are tiny. But in both rooms the service/staff are outstanding. In fact I feel the standard of service is better then when we were last on board 2 years ago.

     

    I know a couple of people asked about 'The Pie Shop' and I have posted a couple of pics. The funny thing is if RC thought it was a good idea to have a Pie Shop on board for the Brits it ain't working. To date I have not seen one person buy a pie.

     

    NEWS : We have been told by a crew member that next year there will be a Japanese restaurant on board Indy. This is because they are so popular on other RC ships. BTW this might not be breaking news but it was to me.

     

    One slight crumble. Although the staff/crew are amazing there is a small amount of guests who are sooooo rude. LIFT GATE... Do they not realise we are all waiting for a lift but choose to sprint in front of everyone to get in there. Then once they leave the lift they can hardly walk again.. Hmmmmmmm. Anyhow moan over lol [emoji12][emoji12]

     

    We possible I will continue to periscope. ID Simonuk103

     

    Take care all

  3. We stopped in Gibraltar today. We did not get off the ship as we have been to Gibraltar before but a fair few people did. We docked next to P&O ship Arcadia. Although Arcadia is bid Indy still looked huge next to it.

     

    We had a lot of sunshine today which was great but the breeze/wind was pretty strong on occasions. The little one had a great time in the H2O zone. It was pretty quiet in the morning (cause a lot of passengers were off the ship) but the whole off the pool deck was busy during the afternoon.

     

    We had breakfast and lunch in the windjammer and evening meal in the dining room. I have to say the portions in the main dining room don't seem as big as a couple of years back and the quality of meat is a little below bar (but not all the time) The strange thing is the food in the Windjammer seems slightly better. But I must say the service is excellent especially in the main dining room. Our waitress and assistant are both EXCELLENT!!

     

    After the evening meal we had a quick drink in the pyramid lounge then headed back for a early night.

     

    Forgot to say we also played golf on the top deck today which was fun and the flow rider was also on but not many people having a go.

     

    It is a sea day tomorrow so hopefully we will have good weather, We are now heading for Barcelona.

     

    I didn't get chance to scope today but hopefully I will do a scope tomorrow.
