The 08th of March & the start of the final leg of our incredible journey, we cruised home from Port Everglade in Florida to Southampton on P&O cruise ship Oriana.

  We arrived at the boat & prepared to load the bikes onto the ship, seen here discussing the logistics with Tim Holton, Staff Chief Engineer. 

  This was the fun part, Steve was the first to go riding up the gang plank into the ship.. 

  Phil next, he had to remember to duck when he got to the top!

  One onto the ship we rode the bikes up the  ‘M1′ ( the main service corridoorthat runs the full length of the ship ) to the storage cage.. 

  This was a first for the Oriana, this storage cage was converted into a motorcycle lockup, they even welded a eye onto the deck for strapping down the bikes.

  This is Phil’s cabin ( the tidy one ) nice & comfy even with the panniers between the beds!
