Seaday

February 26, 2023

Hallo All, Today we are in the middle of Seven seadays. Cruising from Perth Australia to Mauritius on the Indian Ocean. Almost every night we have to set our clock back one hour. Slowly we are claiming back that day we skipped in the French Polynesia. We are keeping ourselves busy with activities offered on the boat, like movies, trivia”s, fitness center, swimming pool and afternoon naps. So far the weather haven’t been to bad, except for a couple nights with 10 ft swells what made the ship rock back and forth a bit. The highlight at night is the band which plays in the show lounge. They play everything from Motown to Hard rock. The musicians are very good especially the guitar player. We usually stop by there after dinner for a glass of wine or beer. On a sad note, the ship has run out of IPA beer. I am not sure if you guys remembered that we entered a competition doing 8 different kind of activities like Jenga, Beanbag toss, basketball throws and a few more games. Well, the good news is our team from Vancouver Island won this competition by a healthy margin. Even by being on the boat for almost 2 months, we still seem to meet people we haven’t seen before. I have to say that the crew on the boat are very nice and provide excellent service. The odd time I run into Dutch passengers or Crew, to brush up my language skills. ( en weer eens lekker nederlands lullen)Ok, that’s probably it for today. My next post be from land.(Mauritius)
