Sunday – 11 March 2012 – At Sea in South Pacific
Breezy and overcast – weather is warming up. Slept in till 7:30 am – had breakfast on the
back deck of the ship – very pleasant and not too rocky.
Patte and I decide to go to Beginner’s Bridge this morning –
we really enjoy it. There are quite a few people and the instructor is very
good. It will be held every sea
day.
After Bridge -- Dave and I were going to watch a Great
Course Lecture on James Joyce – but for some reason it doesn't work in my
computer. We have decided watch them
separately on the DVD players in our rooms.
I think I would rather watch the lectures than read Ulysses.
Lunch at 12:30 in the Terrace Café – we are all eating very
healthy. The fruit and vegetables on
this ship are second to none. Everything
is so fresh – there is no reason not to eat healthy.
Trivia at 4:00 pm – we don’t do as well – at least we are
not in the top three – tomorrow we’ll do better.
The Captains’ Cocktail Party is at 5:45 pm – with
complimentary drinks and snacks and dancing.
As part of this celebration there are complimentary drinks in two of the
bars from 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm. That is
amazing. We have noticed a lot more free
things than the last time we cruised on Oceania. All the water and soft drinks are free –
whether in your cabin or out and about.
This Captain’s Party was one of the best –
Tonite we dine in Toscana – at 8:30 pm. or so we
thought. Captain Steubing aka Phil
investigated and found they had a table which we were welcome to at 7:00 pm ---
perfect. The meal in Toscana was
great. I had Dover Sole – others had
Veal, Lobster all equally as good.
We are all exhausted after dinner. These sea days are tough – doing nothing has
way of wearing one out.
13 Mar 2012 – Kingdom of Tonga -- Please bear with me as
posting the photos takes more internet power than is available in the Kingdom. As soon
as possible I’ll post the photos.
Thanks for Reading.
