LET THE EATING COMMENCE!
Found where the ship was without any problems, too far to walk though so the nice man in the hotel organized a taxi for us. The port was chaos, hardly any staff around and nobody seemed to know where to go.. Once we had got inside the queue for normal checkin was actually shorter than the express checkin queue 🙂
Cathy was very restrained in her first visit to the WindJammer, she kept it to salad, sandwiches, pork ragu, pizza, burger and a corn on the cob.. We then washed it down with a BBC cocktail in the bar 🙂
The ship is miles bigger than the other one, I think I might need to get cathy an ‘if found please return to’ badge for when she gets lost.. Just need to decide where to get her returned to :-). Our original dining table was stuck in a corner but they’ve managed to move us to a nicer table and sorted out our Gold membership.. finally!
Dinner was fantastic, as ever, and they now do a wine plan so you save money if you buy lots of wine.. Be rude not to! We are sitting on a table with 4 very quiet Americans, not a huge amount of conversation so far!
Some of the staff did a bizarre show on the shopping promenade in wierd costumes with huge heads! Main show tonight was hilarious, guy called Neal Austin who was half Paul daniels half lee Evans.
