Monday 10^th December to Saturday 15^th December – Days at sea.

 

Weather getting warmer every day.  More and more flesh becoming exposed – oh the sights!  Keeping very busy with choir rehearsals and Bridge seminars.  Having trouble fitting in meals at times, so size not ballooning yet.

Our first open deck Caribbean party was cancelled due to rain!!

Have been socialising with people above our station and holding our own.  Enjoyed a lovely dinner with Patrick, Helene, Anne, Mike and Helen.  Helen gave us a copy of her book, the story which inspired Daphne du Maurier’s first novel – ‘The Loving Spirit’.

By Saturday the weather had turned very warm.  The ‘Voyager Voices’ (Ian and Nesta + Choir) performed to a full house of passengers and was great fun.

We had the surreal experience of  taking part in a photo shoot for next years Voyages of Discovery brochure.  We had to sit in front of a plate of cold food whilst the pics were taken, but at least we could drink the wine.  Not sure what clients they are trying to attract!!

 

Thought you'd like to see some pics of our Atlantic crossing...

 

 The captain and the first officer - who's sailing the ship??

 The captain checking with the passengers - which island are we going to??

 Finally, we are in the Caribbean!!
