| I'd booked Sindhu for 7.30pm. It wasn't on the ships when I last sailed and love Indian food so had to give it a try. En route, we saw Mike Doyle chatting to his friends in Tiffany's Court and had a few words before going to eat. He and his friends had the big table in the middle. I'm not really a fan of speciality restaurants, considering how much you already pay to get free food included. However this was everything my friends said it would be and well worth the extra money. It will definitely be booked again on my next P&O cruise. Afterwards, it was time to put the case out then go to bed. |

| And so the final few hours onboard this beautiful ship as we returned home. It was hard to believe we'd have to leave far too soon. I photographed most of what I hadn't as as we were on deck, the propellers worked harder and Norwegian Spirit suddenly appeared heading outbound. One final breakfast in the Conservatory after we'd passed Hythe then it was back on deck to get Spirit of Discovery arriving. Back in to collect our hand luggage then to the Theatre Royal to wait for disembarkation, which was pretty quick. |

| And that was that. My last ever disembarkation from this fabulous ship unless by some miracle she returns to UK shores for CMV or something. Despite only sailing three short cruises totalling 9 nights, it was still difficult to say goodbye. My dad really enjoyed his cruise on her as well and was sorry there would be no more. I'll certainly miss her, strangely more than any ship I'd sailed on either scrapped or elsewhere in the world.
