Comments

We have seen four seasons in a day here today – moving from blue skies and sunshine through to windy, overcast and snow falling. The sea is rougher today and we are moving around a bit more – less people at meals today. Other than that we have established a solid pattern of shipboard life while waiting to get home – sleep, eat, read books/watch movies, eat, sleep . . . . Cheers, Nicki, Rob and Peter.
