Day 495                                                  27th November
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

.75 mile (Cadiz to cruise ship ) Average speed 4.5 mph Top speed 12mph<\/p>\n

I was a wake at 6 and got up for a shower and a walk around town and a coffee in a cafe on the street watching everyone going to work. I\u2019m beginning to forget what that means.<\/p>\n

At the hostel I had brekkie of muesli and pancakes and said goodbye to Swin the Dutchman and checked out with Ramos, who used to work on the cruise ship playing flamenco guitar. I cycled to the port and checked in with another cyclist who had all brand new kit. I looked a bit dishevelled next to him, but I guess after 16 months my gear is looking a bit worn! Me too!<\/p>\n

On board I had a double bed and shower with plenty of room for the bike when it was delivered later by the porters.<\/p>\n

My cabin<\/p><\/div>\n

Then I went up to the 14th floor to see the 360 bar and had a couple of mojitos before lunch of bean and chorizo soup followed by salmon, mash and veg with creme caramel and chocolate cake. I went back to the 11th floor for a coffee but they only had a coffee liqueur so I made do! Then it was into the disco for the safety announcement and the info on muster stations.<\/p>\n

Back at the room the luggage had arrived, except for the kitchen bag which had a knife in it, so I will have to wait and see if they have confiscated that in a while, but first I had to have a few Balentine and cokes while sunbathing. I think I could get used to life on a cruise ship.<\/p>\n

After a few more Balentines I needed a siesta to make sure that I would make dinner at 7.30. The alarm didn\u2019t wake me and I only just managed to make dinner at 8.20, but met a Canadian couple from Vancouver and John from Weston super Mare. We chatted about John’s cycling trips and Vancouver and enjoyed soup, steak with potatoes.<\/p>\n
