Rarotonga

We were to land on the island of Rarotonga in the Cook Islands today, but high winds and rough seas made docking impossible. We circumnavigated the island so that we could all get photographs, then we set about celebrating Glenda's birthday.

Glenda is very confused about crossing the International Date Line tomorrow. She writes:
Today is a sea day so I am spending time trying to figure out how tomorrow(Sunday) is gone and Monday will be tomorrow all because of an imaginary line called the international date line. Where will tomorrow(Sunday)go and can I get it back and if my birthday were tomorrow(Sunday)would I not become a year older and if I owed a bill due tomorrow( Sunday) would I have to pay it?????? Who invented this stuff? Anyway, see you Monday cause tomorrow will never come 😱😱I am so confused but the sea is beautiful and life is lovely.

Chef Mathur prepared an exquisite birthday cake for her. We celebrated with Kathy and Gil Dickson, and also Bill and Jo Mellor at Manfredi's for supper. Czytaj więcej
