Friday, November 21, 2014 - Set Sail in Dubai, UAE on Regent's SS Voyager


We went to the concierge lounge early for the breakfast buffet.  My cough continues to get worse and the sinus drainage just won’t seem to let up.  Tim insisted that we stay in the hotel until 2 so we did.  The plan is to get to the port after the crowd so we don’t have to wait in line.  So I slept most of the morning and early afternoon.
We checked out at 2 pm – another ordeal which is surprising for a JW.  The taxi driver took us the short way to the Rashaid Port but there was construction and he couldn’t get us close with all of our backs.  So we went on a “hike” with our bags to the terminal.  Finally one of the porters met us and took the bags from us.  There was no check-in portside.  They met us at the gangway with champagne and then we went to the theatre for check-in.  Short process.
We went to our Suite 707 which is spacious and comfortable.  We unpacked and went up for sail away out of Dubai.  It has a pretty skyline.  But the air was turning cool as we set sail so I needed to get back inside.

We decided to order room service and that was good.  Just a very light dinner for me.  All of the alcohol is included in the cruise so they brought us a bottle or red, white and a huge bottle of Grey Goose Vodka.  It was an early evening for me - hoping that I feel better tomorrow.
