The Silver Moon docked in Ajaccio, from where TSH and Diva could see mountains, including some snow-capped. Their morning walk took them around the town and along a sea-front promenade. This was an excellent port.
The Silver Moon was docked next to P&O Azura.
The new captain (took over in Rome) has already announced
that the weather is worsening and it will not be possible to anchor and tender
at Portofino. So the call will instead be to Genoa.
There is no bad weather, just unsuitable clothing. TSH and
Diva had made provision for cooler and showery weather but not for the rain
storm – almost hail - which descended on
them in Pisa. Diva was wet to the skin and on return to the ship had to change
completely into the warmest clothes she could find. TSH had his cap and his
long coat, so was better prepared for the wet and had only the cold to contend
with. He kept announcing that ‘it is about to fair up’ but Diva saw no evidence
of this happening.
En route to Pisa, TSH’s memory was such that he gave Diva
due notice of the railway yard they were about to pass.
The Silver Moon was docked in Livorno next to Philip Green’s
super yacht and another one which is on sale for £175 million. Obscene.
