Day 5 – Sunday 11/22 – Voyager of the Seas

TRAINS AND SHIPS

Today we caught the AVE train from Madrid to Barcelona.  We packed up early and wheeled the luggage from the hotel to the train station (only a couple of large blocks).  These trains are great as they can take you anywhere at very little cost.  We had purchased our tickets on the internet for 45 euros – if we had bought them at the station they would have been 110 euros. 

The train was quiet with large windows and a perfect way to travel.

We arrived in Barcelona about 3pm and at the ship at about 3:30 pm.  Check in was fast and easy and we were in our room by 3:45.  We have room 1388 which is an aft cabin with a large balcony – very nice with plenty of storage room.

We unpacked and met up with our friends in the concierge lounge.   Nice to be on the ship!
