Day 6 - At Sea

I finally got a good night of sleep! I planned to wake early to wash my hair and give it time to dry. That didn’t happen but I feel well rested.

We had reservations for Sunday Brunch. That was different, like a tasting menu. We had each of the items listed, along with a Mimosa (or 2)!

Then it was a quick visit to the Sea View Bar to say hi to Christian, but he was not there. However, Grace was and she was equally as wonderful. Such nice staff. So off to play Mexican Train. We also had a drink with friends after the game.

I went down to try to figure out my internet sign on because I did get credited back the used minutes. I now know how to log off and I will be sure to do that. We played a bit cribbage before we were off to dinner. Next was the show and then a wrap on day 6!

Day - 51 Walvis Bay, Namibia

Nov 29 -   Walvis Bay, Namibia We finally put our feet on Namibian soil today! The tour we took today was a “free” one for us through Travel Leaders Network, which Stuart arranged. We left at 11am. The first tour highlight was a scenic drive to Walvis Bay Lagoon to view the flamingos. It is a swampy-like area but there are a lot of flamingos! It was very windy with sand blowing so photos are not great. Back into the small truck/bus/van vehicle with our next stop at Namib Dunes. This looked mostly like a place to rent dune buggies and take a drive. We weren’t there long, then we were off to Swakopmund. Swakopmund was established by German colonists in 1892. This coastal city is west of the capital, Windhoek. Today it is best known for its unique blend of German colonial architecture, recreational activities, and as a gateway to attractions such as the Namib Desert and the nearby resort town of Walvis Bay. There are sandy beaches facing the Atlantic Ocean. (We will stop ther...

Day 33 - Victoria, Mahe, Seychelles

This morning the ship horn blew and we had 2 minutes of silence to honor those Veterans who gave their lives. Another blast noted the end of the 2 minutes. I thought that was very meaningful and I am not the only one who shed a few tears. Tomorrow there will be a service on the big stage honoring Veterans Day. Today we took a much shorter walk to the Hyper Market to buy some more spices and just generally see what is on the shelves. It is always interesting to look in different super markets to see how the locals eat. This was a huge market, I likened it to a Wal-Mart Super Store. Christmas decorations are going up and we saw people buying lots of toys in that section. We got a few snacks and then ventured upstairs to the Food Court. It was small without too may choices but we had a piece of fried chicken. Then back to the ship. Today I took time to take photos of some lovely flowers along the walkway. Sail away was 4:30-5p, I forgot to look at the actual time. Now we will have 2 sea...

Day 29 - At Sea

I’m really enjoying these sea days.   They do have activities on the ship but I rarely have time for that. I’m enjoying the pool, Mexican Train, and tonight we had dinner with Fred again. He is an interesting guy. We again talked about the loss of our spouses and it is amazing how this is a positive thing for us. Not the loss of course but the ability to talk to others who know just what we are going through personally. Not a lot of gambling tonight as I lost my allotted amount pretty quickly. I had a credit on the slot machine so I played that. It was fun, I still have a small credit!!!
