I’m settling in nicely, with a much better sleep last night, waking just before my alarm at 06.50. I put on my running gear before heading off to the gym. 5km later and a series of resistance exercises, I did some stretches before shower and breakfast.
We got down to breakfast in the MDR at 8.45 only to be turned away because it wasn’t 8.45 and breakfast had finished at 9.30. We’d only forgotten to move our clocks forward. Anyway we trotted off to the Lido for breakfast in the buffet. I had kedgeree and extra kippers, Jane had a freshly made omelette from the omelette fairy. It was very busy, so I assume we weren’t the only dopey ones.
Being an hour behind, we’d missed Jane’s line dancing class, and with there being no Fencing classes we headed up stairs and lay in the sun on deck 10.
Lunch was in the MDR, salt cod banadade and turkey tagliatelle,
I’ve been to the Purser’s desk to get a statement, and worryingly I’m missing the extra 900 USD OBC I’d ordered at the same time as the wine package. Hopefully this will get sorted soon.
We also visited the travel desk to arrange extra shore excursions. So we are now going to, Gjiroskra in Albania and Toarmina in Sicily. In addition I’m doing a tour of Olympia while Jane lounges around the ship.
