Vlissingen, Netherlands, and then Antwerp, Belgium.

Vlissingen

We were in Vlissingen until lunch time today and then sailed on to Antwerp for an overnight stay then leave tomorrow lunch time. I've been resting and trying to get my bearings a bit.

The Prinsendam is an old ship but she floats! Internal staff passages are a nightmare and seem like a rabbit warren.

Paul has been down to the tailors shop to get a work uniform made as well as coveralls made -  his clothes, except for one pair of uniform trousers and shirt, are all in a trunk which is still on the Maasdam.  And we may not see the trunk for quite a while.  Paul also had to be measured for a formal evening suit but needs to find a formal shirt as there are none on board.  A bow tie has been found for him, fortunately.  He also needs a black tie - which I will try to get at the shops as and when we dock and if I have time to go shopping.
