      Istanbul

      November 1, 2011 in Turkey ⋅ 🌙 7 °C

      Ugggh!! The coffee is horrible.
      First morning, 6am and the coffee is horrible.
      I think I may have to break a habit of a lifetime and start paying for it...LOL.
      Anyway, as I said it's the first morning and I'm still drunk from last night....
      The trip here was great, I can definitely recommend Swiss Air, two brilliant flights...although the food was only average.
      We just made boarding the ship in time for the last hour of the free drinks for diamond members....phew!
      When we arrived at Istanbul Attaturk airport the taxi I'd booked online was waiting for us with my name in lights.....well if I'm honest, it was hand written on a piece of paper, when all the other names of people being picked up by various transport firms were computer printed...
      It made me feel very special....or am I just kidding myself....LOL.
      I think today is just going to be a chill out day, because yesterday's mixture of a long journey and free wine will have us old farts to tired to move far :-) I''ll keep you informed...TTFN.

      We have the Norovirus on board

      November 1, 2011 in Turkey ⋅ ⛅ 11 °C

      Just found out that the Norovirus is on board and guess what?
      It looks like Sheila has come down with it, but her illness could be down to the excessive quantity of white wine she consumed last night ;-) we'll know later.
      We are sailing out of Istanbul as I write, the weather is cloudy and most of the American's and Europeans are dressed for the Arctic lol.
      Sheila is still not well, but we're certain it's just alcoholic poisoning, not the Norovirus.
      So we should see her surface tomorrow morning, again I''ll keep you informed.
