Tuesday Take 1

Somewhere in, International

Today is the first 26th February for us. Tomorrow will also be 26th February.

The seas became quite rough through the night and we were grateful that our room is midships.
There were fewer people at breakfast and even fewer again at lunch. We were still managing to lurch down the corridors, but were looking forward to calmer weather later in the day.

This morning’s lecture was about the French influence in the South Pacific – it was OK.
Tonight was our second formal night but many people chose to eat at the Lido where you don’t have to dress up. The song and dance show Vanity Fair was postponed until tomorrow night when calmer seas are expected.

We went up to Deck 9 and listened to the resident harpist who also answered questions in between playing. She is very good. Around the ship during the day and in the evenings you come across musicians playing which adds to the ambience beautifully. These musicians are all quite young, enjoying their music and enjoying traveling.
