The Splendida slipped her moorings in Barcelona at six, let out an almighty blast on her horn, edged gingerly past a Costa cruise liner, glided through the narrow port and we are away.
Our party of five assembled in the lounge to enjoy this spectacle over prosecco, martini royale and aqua con gas.
We then moved on to L'Olivo at the boat's stern for dinner....squid stuffed with rice and lemon, a vegetable soup, risotto with radicchio, slow cooked lamb with rosemary. No room for dessert; a limoncello sufficed. To the show.
We took second row seats to a song and dance spectacle that ranged over the Beatles, Buddy Holly and Michael Jackson. We clapped and sang and clapped some more.
