The last four days at sea have been superb compared with our crossing from San Francisco to Hawaii. Calm seas and warm sunshine. So relaxing. Much easier doing our deck laps now too. So far we've sat out in the courtyard for lunch every day but it's becoming increasingly popular and not so easy to get a table.
We've had another World Club cocktail party but it was so so packed we probably give the next one a miss.
We did get to meet our new Captain, Aseem Hashmi, though. A nice guy with a really good sense of humour. This was sadly lacking with Inger! Saw Ben Mills twice, he was the runner up to Leona Lewis on the X Factor. A really good singer with a Rod Stewart/Joe Cocker type voice. The Crew put on another talent show and our Sommelier sang My Way this time.
We lost the 13th February when crossing the International Date Line and went from the 12th to Valentine's Day on the 14th. So now we're ahead of the UK and not behind.
We also had the Crossing the Line Ceremony which is always good fun. Pollywogs (those who haven't crossed the equator before) are tried before King Neptune and punished by having to kiss a fish and being covered with gunge. If you have crossed the equator then you are a shellback. A really entertaining hour or so.
I think I remember you doing that before. Sounds so relaxing I could do with some of that xx
