The cabin contained most of what we needed. We asked our cabin steward for ice twice a day, extra hangers, pillows, and robes which are provided only if requested. |
Replicas or original marine equipment from long ago. |
We'd signed up for the Wi-Fi package allowing two devices online at any given time. Last night I got online using my phone, thinking when I was done, I'd logged off properly.
Wouldn't you know, I'd hit "disconnect" but was unable to log on with my laptop when an error message indicated I was already logged on another device. Frustrated, after all this morning's activities, I couldn't get online for the life of me.

The area where the bridge is located. |
Instead of excuses, I'm simply stating, we've been so busy these past few days, its been difficult to find the time to get down to doing what we love to do...writing to all of YOU.
The theatre where we watched the late comedy show last night. There'll be entertainment here each night. |
As we recently discovered, there are only 140 Americans on the ship. This is a long way to fly for a cruise. The majority of the passengers are from Australia, some the UK, and a handful of Europeans. The passenger capacity is 2800 and from what we've heard, the ship is fully booked.
As the theatre began to fill in for the entertainment. There are two or three shows a night. |
When on a back-to-back cruise there isn't much for us to do to become a part of the second leg. We'll get new SeaPass ID cards, go through immigration in a priority line as we re-board, after spending the day with friends Michelle and Carlo sightseeing in Fremantle. It should go smoothly.
Display of nautical knots. |
At the moment, Tom is in the cabin watching the Minnesota Vikings Game on his laptop while I'm sitting at the bar in the Schooner Bar where I'd hoped for reasonably ergonomic place to sit to avoid bending over my laptop. So far, so good. Pain it as a minimum. Pleasure is in abundance.
Various knots used at sea. |
Happy day!
