Day 15, Bridgetown, Barbados- Coming home

Up just as the ship docked. Our cases had gone overnight, so we just had our hand luggage and the clothes we were wearing for the day/flight. Once dressed , we went down to complete the immigration process, then went for brekkie. We had to be out of the cabin by 9am, which we were. Storing our hand luggage, we walked into Bridgetown to have a look around and take some photos. By the time we had done Nelson's statue, the Independence Arch, the Parliament building and Cathedral, the 30 degree heat was starting to take its toll on Catherine, so we made our way back to the ship.

On board we had a light snack and drink, before collecting our hand luggage. The coaches to take us to the airport were ready at 1pm and we arrived 30 minutes later. It's great being a cruise passenger, they fast track you through. There's even the personal touch, as the security lady stroked my leg! I had my passport in my pocket and she queried what it was. No interest in my watch or belt, which I hadn't removed, just my passport and boarding pass. Not satisfied with me telling her what it was, I had to show her. And to satisfy herself there was nothing else, she touched my thigh.

We quickly found a couple of seats and made ourselves comfortable for the wait ahead. With a little over 2 hours till departure, they posted the gate, so we moved to the departure lounge at gate 14.
People were already changing into their UK clothing. I've got my zipoffs on, so I can put the legs on before we land. 

Next update will be when we are back in Blighty.  Brrrrr!
