November in the Med ?

[spanglycruisegirl]

We have just booked the Insignia November 14 Barcelona to Lisbon cruise and wondered what to expect weather-wise ?

We are really looking forward to the cruise and trying hard not to be too dismayed that our airline has just cancelled our flight from Lisbon back to the UK (perhaps we should just stay on bord to Rio & fly home from there ?!?)

spanglycruisegirl,

 

At that Time in November you can expect low to mid 60's (that's Fahrenheit of course) in both cities (they're only about 620 miles apart, so the weather will be similar).

Unfortunately, November is also their rainy season.

 

Look at the bright side, you can stay inside all those museums without feeling guilty about missing the sunshine!

We did an O cruise from Istanbul to Barcelona the same time of the year and the weather was splendid throughout the cruise (no guarantee, of course). Although we did have a very rough last night on the way to Barcelona (my packing was interrupted with frequent "talks with Arthur" - maybe this reference is before your time?)

Spanglycruisegirl, there is a roll call for this cruise.

I am also booked on it.
