Last day

It's Wednesday and another sea day and my final day.  Yesterday was another typically great sea day with the exception that we traversed the straights of Gibraltar.  Interesting having morocco on one side and Spain on the other.  Unfortunately it was a bit hazy so photos of the rock of Gibraltar are poor.  But  there were whales and dolphins swimming around so that was fun.

The previous night they did another outdoor party with the band playing by the pool.  They had the heaters on as it got a bit cool but still a good turnout.

Tonight is the last formal night and I've been invited to a table of 10 or so.  People have been amazing, very friendly and lots of fun.

I can't believe the weather.  Someone mentioned the forecast is for rain in Barcelona but this morning is perfect again on board.  Except for some reason we seems to have been infested with bees.  They are everywhere.  We were a few miles from shore yesterday, could they fly that far or did they come on in Madeira?  I don't know.  They seem pretty mellow.

Last day of trivia.  We did ok today but overall finished 10th out of 12.  But luckily everyone got a nice prize of an umbrella and visor.

  1. Hey Rob, great to see you back at the sea. Interesting itinerary this time (non-US departure). Hope it was a good voyage!

    Cheers,
