April 26, 2013 Sea Day

Another hot and sunny day! There was hardly any breeze today, even on deck 11, but we sunbathed and cooled off in the pool this morning.



Had lunch in the buffet today since it was the Italian Trattoria. Then we went to the lecture on the Suez Canal which we transit in a few days.

Then we went to the Meet & Mingle for all the World Cruisers in the Cabaret Lounge. It’s the first time they did a function just for all of us doing the full world cruise. Most of us thought it would have been nice to do one early in the first segment so we could have met each other. But, they had free cocktails and snacks and it seemed like most everyone was there.

I spent quite a bit of the day confirming tours for this last segment. I contacted tour companies with questions or updates. I have 2 openings on our Cyprus tour that so far hasn’t filled up.

Later this afternoon we passed through the Gulf of Aden into the Red Sea. There is a narrow area where we could see Yemen on one side and Djibouti on the other.

The show tonight was a production number called Shake, Rattle & Roll with 50’s & 60’s music. Very fun show. Even Peter and Jason (Cruise director and deputy cruise director) performed a couple of songs.

2 more sea days!
