Comments

All continues to be good on board as we make our way back to Hobart. . This morning there was the required weekly emergency muster on the heli-deck which went without a hitch. The starboard side passengers were treated to a wetting down when a wave came over the heli –deck during the roll call, all part of the fun, especially for those on the port side who watched it and stayed dry.

Last night we were entertained by our intrepid walker Henk who gave us a photographic presentation of his walk through Northern Spain along the Camino St. Frances. The onboard presentations have been great and well attended. The gym is being well utilised and there is a daily aerobics session happening.

Tonight the ships clocks go forward by another hour; we will only be 3 hours behind Hobart with another three hours to pick up over next week.

Cheers Tony and Simon
