All aboard

We are now installed in our cabin on A deck and I'm on the balcony looking at HMS Victory and the naval buildings in the distance . I've unpacked my clothes but Susan's case hasn't arrived so we are discussing which of my clothes will fit her. Problem solved just as we are about to muster for our safety drill. How is it that the Captain decides to make his announcement just two minutes before the end of the Italy v England game and the TV switches off for safety reasons?
Dinner in the Grill tonight. Four cheese tart with grape and walnut salad, chef's roast beef (rare) and apple and blueberry crumble. Dinner discussions with a couple who have not cruised before so we imparted our wisdom on how to dress, where to eat, etc. pretending that we knew what we were talking about.
Now in the bar with my second G&T. Susan has opted for cointreau. The resident duo are performing 70's and 80's songs and we feel very relaxed but a little tired. The same host from the Philippines whom we enjoyed in August has just introduced himself with the same jokes. We feel like we belong.もっと詳しく
