Day 13 - At Sea

Day 13 – Wednesday 22^nd January – 2014

Up early and into the gym followed by the sauna, the only way I have found on here to recover from the lethal drink.

Spent the morning tiding up the cabin and placing them in places which I can remember where I have put them.

The dance lesson today was going back to the slow waltz and I am getting the hang of this one.

This was followed by lunch in Weatherspoon’s, our new American guests have started to find this place as it was just about full.

The weather is set fair and warm and the first time on the trip, I went up to the aft end of Deck 9 which is one of the sun decks,  on which there is a swimming pool with two Jacuzzis’, a bar and a food preparation area.  Sun loungers and towels are provided and cover the whole deck area.  A half hour lie in the sun was most beneficial.

Spent the rest of the afternoon, doing the blog site and even found time to get the banjo out of its case, for a bit of practice.

The cocktails in the Café Carinthia were Harvey Wallbangers.

It was another formal dress night and for dinner I had soup/sirloin steak/chocolate cake.

In the ballroom going on was the Black and White Ball while we passed by on our way to the theatre.  The show was a musical called ‘Hotel Royal’ and a very good production.

After the show, it was off to bed as the clocks were advancing one hour.
