Goodbye Saga Rose
After lunch at the cafe on Town Quay we went along the path a bit for some more photos.  She looked so gorgeous basking in the sunshine.  Pity it was so damn cold!
Fay went to catch her non-banana back to the Island and I headed to West Quay to wait for the bus.  Being a Sunday they're annoyingly once an hour.  As I waited I checked my emails and saw a message telling me it looked like Rosie was heading to Alang!  I was overcome with sadness, especially having just left her.  It's very sad when a much-loved ship leaves anyway.  But at least she won't rot like QE2.  We'd have to see the next day.
