Valparaiso, Chilean wine and a double apology

Heroes of the Chilean people, remembered in their main square in Valparaiso

After our fairly less-than-satisfactory excursion yesterday, we returned to the sanity and cool of our room with a message of apology from P&O, basically saying it wasn’t their fault that there was utter chaos yesterday, it was the fault of the port authorities. Well, at least we had an apology eh?! Our balcony was bathed in evening sunlight, but our view was heavy-duty cranes. Not exactly the romantic pictures as depicted by the cruise brochures. As we’d had a large lunch, there was no need for a meal last night, though we both felt in need of a bath to remove the heat from the day. Nick finally agreed that the boat does actually move when we’re in dock.
