Heading home on Anthem of the Seas we would see five ships in various parts of the English Channel beginning on the 1st as we sailed from Zeebrugge to Le Havre. Britannia was heading back to Southampton from Norway and quite far in the distance. The 12,700grt Fram was easier to see despite being far smaller. She debuted in 2007 for Hurtigruten and is a little cutie. Between 11.30pm and 12.30am, there were three in a row. Azura was sailing from Southampton, Voyager from Portsmouth and Celebrity Silhouette from Le Havre, which was our destination. The 122,000grt Silhouette replaced my beloved Constellation from Amsterdam. She was the fourth in the class, entering service in 2011.
