Rare elmsliebev Posted December 12, 2022 #5 Share Posted December 12, 2022 have a great time! If you get a moment could you see if there is lactose-free milk in the buffet at breakfast? I will let P&O know about himself's lactose intolerance but just wondered if it's easily available at breakfast (Cunard had a chiller section with all the "other" milks in it). Many thanks.

The model village is really good and we nearly missed it when wandering around the town. We did miss the lights though as we are on the Spirit of Adventure moored opposite Azura and backed out past you ahead of the switch on. Not sure how we ended up in the prime berth with no need for a shuttle bus as we were a late booking, having diverted from the planned call in the Azores to try and miss the worst of the weather.

Thought you might have had a power failure as you left. Turned on all your pretty lights as you left the berth then turned them all off again! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pennib Posted December 13, 2022 #18 Share Posted December 13, 2022 Take care with getting the WiFi for 2 devices. You need a separate package for each device. If you don’t want to pay for 2 packages, then all you need to do is to buy one package and remember to log out of device 1 before logging in on device 2.

The blocking high over the UK means the low pressure systems are off the Bay of Biscay and moving to land off Portugal and into southern France. Lisbon has had some horrendous rainfall, with devastating floods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Technoman2 Posted December 14, 2022 Author #22 Share Posted December 14, 2022 Yes it was another sea day yesterday back fom madeira to la palma this morning. It was a bumpy ride overnight with 50 knot winds but not too bad. Promenade deck 7 was closed for half of the day and deck 16 and 17 at the very back of the ship also closed. Watched a good Ed Sheeran tribute night before last. Mixed weather not spoiling holiday so far. 24c forecast today. You still need masks here for buses and taxis. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Technoman2 Posted December 14, 2022 Author #23 Share Posted December 14, 2022 La palma is ok for a biet of shopping on the street behind seafront. Free courtesy bus from ship to port gate or 10 min walk look for mc donalds sign. Actually got to 28c and clear blue sky from 11am toasty. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandancer Posted December 14, 2022 #24 Share Posted December 14, 2022 Hi Technoman, if you can spare a little Wi-Fi would you check out a post on the P&O forum regarding first time cruisers with P&O. Very damning review of Azura and as you are onboard right now it would be great to know your response to the comments made regarding the condition of the ship. Thanks 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks We got off Azura on December 2nd after 14 nights. IMO the ship was in excellent condition in fact much better than Ventura we were on in October. Lots of Christmas decorations and Christmas trees around the ship. Food in Epicurean and Sindhu was excellent. The Glass house was a pleasant surprise and the food was excellent too.
