Our next port was Muscat in Oman. There we took in the sights in a taxi for a few hours. Then Oceana sailed the next day through dangerous waters towards Salalah
After a short transit Oceana docked in Abu Dhabi for our first port visit. The next day Oceana sailed through the Arabian Gulf to our next port of call of Muscat.
On our last day we went on a P&O excursion to the Atlantic side of Barbados, had lunch in the Atlantis Hotel, called at one of the parish churches before we waited at the airport for our flight to Gatwick to leave.
We spent the morning in St Vincent on a beach after a hair raising boat trip. The weather was changeable with lots of sunshine interspersed with heavy rain.
Philipsburg in St Maarten was our first landfall in the Caribbean. We went to Maho Beach for most of the day to watch planes landing over our heads at the Sunset Bar.
The next five days took us from the Azores across the Atlantic to the Sargasso Sea and then the Caribbean. Azura dodged tropical storm Oscar but there was a serious medical emergency on the last day.
