We then decided to walk back to the train station. This took us the best part of two hours. Good to walk off the sausage! Lots of love,. Laquo; Day 20 Copenhagen. Day 22 At Sea.

Laquo; Day 17 London. Day 19 – The Eurodam at Sea. Day 18 – Leaving London to Board the Eurodam. We left early as we had to get to the station and we were aware that we would be in the midst of peak-hour traffic. After our experiences with the cab fares, we thought it best to make a move early. Didn’t matter in the end anyway as we got a very flashy ride to the station in a Mercedes Benz! Tomorrow we will have a look at the shore excursions and have a better look at the ship. Lots of love,.
