Day 11 - At Sea

Day 11 – Monday 20^th January 2014 – At Sea

Early rise, go into the gym for a proper session, followed by a relaxing sauna.

Today has been assigned as laundry day while our dress white shirts go off to the ship’s laundry at a cost of $6 a shirt.  For the rest of washing, on each deck there is a laundrette with three washing machines and driers with washing powder being provided, there is also an iron and ironing board. Colin was assigned to this task but he was not too happy on his return.  Not with the facilities but the other guests who were using the machines for only three of four items and not reading the notices, on how to operate the machines properly.

At 11.00 went to a lecture given by John Laverick on ‘One hundred years before Panama – the birth of canals’.  An insight, into the early history of the British Canal system, and how they are maintained.

The lunch time dance lessons, the salsa which is more wiggling about.

The rest of the afternoon is spent getting to grips with this blog site and siesta.

Today’s cocktail is Sundowner, which is Tequilla and pineapple, very nice.

 Dinner of salmon/lamb/ice cream.

Tonight’s show in the theatre is John Nations, an American juggler and he was good.

Bed after the show, as an early start in the morning for arrival in Fort Lauderdale.
