At Sea: SE Asia Array Stats

I know, I sound like a broken record. But after three days of sightseeing in really hot and humid weather that had sweat cascading out of every pore in our bodies, today’s day at sea as we cruise towards another port in Vietnam was much appreciated.

While the day was quiet and conducive to relaxation, we had an evening packed with social activities … starting with the Oceania Club Party for the Southeast Asia Array segment and then a birthday dinner to celebrate our friend Boris’s birthday. We enjoyed the party with our friends Sonia & Boris and Pat & Norm. We enjoyed the dinner in the Grand Dining Room with our friends Younga & David, Frank & Dilek, and of course the birthday boy and Sonia.

P.S. Here are some stats that OCA Cella shared with us at the Oceania Club Party …

There are 525 passengers from 23 countries onboard. At least one passenger and one crew member call 11 of those countries home. (She gave the countries, but my fingers were not nimble enough to record them.) 479 of the passengers are repeaters. 150 segment passengers joined us in Singapore … a number of whom are young enough to drop the average passenger age from 70 on the previous segment to 68 on this segment.

P.P.S. I know I am way behind on the port sightseeing footprints. I was afraid this would happen, and it has. Between “living the moment,” using my free time to make plans for future port visits, and the draining heat and humidity … well, I am struggling to find the time and energy to process photos and write. I’ll make the journal whole … but the timing is TBD.Read more
