Morning on the cruise by Arushi

This morning my alarm went off at 5.02 and I opened my eyes to see Millen’s silhouette illuminated by the early morning light filtering through. The three of us opened the curtain to the most spectacular sunrise any of us five have ever seen in our entire lives! It was unreal! The sky was so indescribably beautiful, with streaks of colour painted so delicately against the blue sky. It was breathtaking and could easily be compared to the couples of a campfire with the flaming reds and oranges.

Millen hurried to wake mum and dad up, as Eashan and I made our way up to the sun deck where we were immersed in the sunrise. We both stayed up there for an hour watching the sky dance around whilst Millen was showering and getting ready (and most likely playing some sort of game).

It truly was such a magical morning, sharing the beautiful view in our pjs out at sea. A little after 6, the Tai Chi started , where we were joined by Millen, Mum and Dad as well. I’m still not entirely sure what exactly all the motions are (to me they seemed a bit like the sort of moves you might see in interpretive dance), but nevertheless it was still so lovely to stretch our bodies under the first rays of light.

After a “light breakfast” (more like a full breakfast buffet including pancakes, toast and cereal), we then got to go kayaking at 7.30 around an island next to our boat. We had so much fun racing and splashing each other in the warm water. Millen set off with Yash (they often seemed to find themselves at a close proximity to some rocks), Eashan was with me which left Dad and Mum together. We paddled for about an hour before ditching the kayaks back at the boat for a last dive and swim in the water, still marvelling at the temperature of it.

We then returned back to the boat to shower and check out before brunch on board as we sailed back towards the port to leave this beautiful bay.Читать далее
