Day 41 - At Sea




Day 41 – Thursday 20th February 2014 – At Sea

Ooopps!!!!! lost a day, Wednesday 19th February, as we have crossed over the International Date Line and of course, presented with another certificate.

At the gathering for choir practice, prior to singing, we have a lady in the choir whose birthday it was on Wednesday, which she had lost, so we all sang, happy birthday and cheered her up.  The practice went very well, and all looking forward to our big day.

With it being a fine day, after the heat had gone out of the sun went up on deck for late afternoon bronzy and read, which is becoming a becoming a wonderful attraction.

In the evening, invited to the Captain’s cocktail party, for the round the world cruisers; so another formal night.  This time, I managed to have a chat with the Deputy Captain, Chris Bourne, as in the past, he had sailed with the Sail Training Association, on the topsail schooners, Sir Winston Churchill and the Malcolm Miller.

At the dinner afterwards, I had chicken/lobster/blueberry cake, then went onto the theatre to see Elio Pace, a piano vocalist, who was excellent, played and sang all types of pop music, starting at such at a fast tempo, he kept it up right through the show.

Finished off in the Golden Lion but we were defeated in the trivia quiz. 

New port tomorrow; so off to bed.
