Bayonne New Jersey

Back on the ship for the second cruise.

We had a brilliant surprise today.
Out of the blue we received an invitation to dine with the Captain.
Apparently the guests in the royal suite had to refuse their invitation, so I think they must have felt sorry for us and invited us instead, lol.
Anyway it's not really my kind of thing the dining with the Captain stuff, but it was nice to be invited and it was a very pleasant experience.
The food was beautiful and the service second to none, which it being the Captain's table was only to be expected.
The executive chef came to the table to say hello, his name is Gary Thomas and believe it or not he's a Scouser. Only problem is he's a red! Lol.
It was funny as we met him the night before in the concierge overflow lounge.
He was talking to Sheila and she said to me, "Gary's from Liverpool, I said have you asked him the most important question?" Sheila said "what's that" and Gary knew, quick as a flash he said "blue or red" lol.
I said "exactly".
Turns out he's a red :-( lol. But despite that he's a lovely guy.Read more
