We had a late sail out of Belfast last night. The dockyards were still in full swing, I guess they work 24/7…..and Viking Orion was still at her berth with all lights on.

The seas picked up later on and by the time we approached the Isle of Man it was very confused with moderate winds and whitecaps. There was no way we could lower the tenders and the harbour wasn’t big enough for us. So with no free berths in other ports around us it’s a sea day today. Some passengers are a little disgruntled but I wouldn’t have wanted to tender in those seas. Tomorrow we will be at Liverpool, hopefully our last tour to Port Sunshine will be a good one.
