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.

Today was to be the day when Podge found the ideal tour for The Duchess, it was an excursion to view the Bonaire Flamingos and the Salt Flats of Bonaire (Picture from BonaireSeaSalt.com), a journey through the lush mangrove preserves towards the beautiful south-east of Bonaire. To be honest, I suspect Debbie had no real interest in the Salt Flats as her primary interest was seeing the pink flamingos. 🦩

Sydney; The land of Sun, Melting Tar, Wind, Thunder Lightning & Rain
And we were only there for two days and a night.
This is an epic: I make no apologies: Sydney is, after all an epic city.

Today, we’re back to Curacao for the 2nd time this cruise so we chose not to take an excursion. Mrs Me therefore decreed that we should walk into town to see the swing bridge that everybody kept going on about(!) and of course, look at some shops. Bought some heirlooms (otherwise known as tat by the children) and Debbie bought the first ever pink girlie article (clothing) for our new granddaughter. It turned out that the clothing was actually too small as our new granddaughter had grown quicker than we had realised, mind you. she was only born 3-weeks before we left and we were away for 6-weeks so we weren’t really that surprised.
