Ventura delayed in Barbados.

[Ray Scully]

I understand that as a result of a little snow, the Birmingham flight did not get away yesterday, and as a result, Ventura's sailing from Barbados has been delayed.

Pity poor P&O's admin with all the claims for compensation from those folk stuck in Barbados for another day, presumably still on board suffering P&O'S food. Also the poor devils forced into a Birmingham hotel for the night rather than sleeping in the airport as happened at Heathrow

My friends are on their second week on board so are in the pub but today would have been a sea day so they shouldn't miss any ports all being well.

The Captain might have to put the pedal to the metal to make the first port by tomorrow morning.

"delayed in Barbados". Now that would be nice

Well the captain put his foot down as they are in Antigua today so they just lost a sea day.

Much rather be stuck for an extra day in Barbados than a sea day. Hope they have a great cruise after the trauma of getting there.

My friends enjoyed their extra day in Barbados but I have noticed on the web-cam it is raining well in Antigua

Hubby says that having kicked her heels for 2 days in Barbados, Ventura had little time to get to Antigua, (as planned). So instead, she has toddled off to St Vincent, (which happens to be her 3rd port this week). He says that if Ventura is actually in Antigua today, then they've held a postcard of St Vincent up to the webcam. If OH is correct, (and if he is there'll be no livin' with him ), it seems like P&O have shuffled the mix of port venues a tad, so perhaps they'll visit Antigua later in the cruise.

As for me, I'd be hard pressed to recognize either port from the webcam view....or failing memory....
