Today, we are parked up in St Kitts and it’s blooming hot and made even hotter by our super cool special neighbour: The Arvia is parked next door and, she’s a big bugger (I thought our was big until I saw the Arvia). Should be a good sail-away this evening.

This morning, we will be [once again] revisiting Fairview Great House and Botanical Garden to [once again] learn all about Caribbean Cuisine. Yummy, Yummy. We thoroughly recommend it.

Again, what does one do on a Cruise Ship on yet another sea day? Well, one can take part in so many arranged activities taking place all around the ship from Deck 5 all the way up to Deck 16.

2nd visit to the cage bar – it was only supposed to be a quick beer then back to the suite for a lie down but, after 4-beers we decided to stop at the glass house on board and have a late lunch (we can then skip the evening meal) which was to be accompanied by a glass of Bacchus and a glass of fizzy pop only to find out that lunch included two glasses of sparking white wine which naturally, accompanied our original choice.

Today was another day when we were to be made to feel very special, recognised and appreciated. Today, once more, we were invited to senior officers lunch with the odd drink or two, or three, or four 🥴. After which, once more, both Podge and Tubbs needed a bit of a lie down afterwards.
