Our first port of call was to cold and wet La Coruna. We walked to the beaches alongside the promenade before coming back to the Sapphire Princess to spend the afternoon
Our seven day cruise on Sapphire Princess took us from Southampton to La Coruna, Bilbao, Le Verdon, St. Peter Port and finally back to Southampton.
Day 3 Monday 27th May La Coruna, Spain
We could hear the ship’s fog horns blowing throughout the night. It didn’t keep us awake that much but it was mildly unsettling.
Once the ship had docked, I checked the weather forecast for La Coruna on my Met Office app. Rain was forecast throughout the day. I treated myself to the breakfast special of Eggs Benedict in the International Dining Room.
La Coruna
The forecast rain was falling as we left the ship and walked past the casino and its statues. The shopping complex at the side of the casino look even more dilapidated than on our last visit to the port.
We walked a little way along Rua Real and then turned and walked through the city to be reach the promenade and the beaches. On the way we passed these decorated shop shutters.
This stencil was on an alley wall.
We were not the only ones feeling cold!
