The Captains talk

Normally we don't bother going to the welcome aboard party, as they can be a bit boring, the only saving grace usually is you get a free glass of wine (or two) ;-)
So as we don't have any free drinks on this trip we thought we'd go to the party, and as we were first in we had our picture taken with the captain.

A nicer and more down to earth captain I've yet to meet, his short talk was interesting and informative and he came across as a really nice guy.

I'd go and watch him again.
Oh yes I forgot to mention that the four of us that is Jennifer, Sheila, John and myself won the afternoon music quiz, and me having had a couple of drinks proceeded to show our winning prize which consisted of a couple of stickers (which you accumulate and cash in four prizes, such as plastic key chains at the end of the cruise,) around the room thus making us a target for future quizzes....lol.....bring it on.

The hardy walkers are out on deck all wrapped up taking the sea air, I ventured out just long enough to take the picture below, then I was straight back inside to the nice warm Anderson's bar with the rest of the dead people........Baca selengkapnya
