Travel: Cruise Northern Europe part 1

Thursday, 9 May
We are picked up by our cab 20 min. early and arrive in Antwerp 2 hours early but when we drive towards our port of embarkation, our driver gets totally lost in the Dutch countryside. We arrive at our ship 20 min before embarkation and I'm nauseous cause of nerves. 

We are ushered into the ship with hardly any safety measurements. 

We get our cruise card and find our cabin, with a great balcony. 

At 3pm sharp, the Magnifica starts its journey from Amsterdam and we begin exploring the ship. Afterwards, we have our first cocktails and then get ready for dinner. I take the salmon, followed by a wiener schnitzel and a duo of chocolate parfait. 

We have another cocktail and then go to bed after a very nerve wrecking day.
