POB "cruise" to Cherbourg
Well here are some pics of the "Pride of Bristol" crew "cruise" to Cherbourg.

Whoever decided to pospone the RIB cruise made th right choice - the swell in the Bristol channel was very bad causing our ship to develope quite a roll

Once we were in France the weather improved and the trip back via Falmouth and St Ives was quite pleasent

We used the ships RIB to transport crew ashore in Falmouth and St Ives.

So..... Here we go....... Firstly the ship tied up in Cherbourg.
