    I can't see how you can get more daylight either?

    Our last port of cal on the cruise was Gibraltar. Ok, it was the end of November, so a little bit earlier, but sunset was 6.30pm. I could live with that! It's the 4pm sunsets at the moment that I would gladly give the boot to. Roll on the Winter Solstice.
