Day 6 - 900 naut. miles from N.Y
Every day we get up an hour later because every night we set the clock ahead an hour. We eat breakfast at a buffet that is only one floor up. Our official dining room is miles away and twice we got lost trying to find our way back to the room. Dining room service is luxurious. The waiter says Madam, with the accent on the second syllable and puts the napkin in your lap. Meals are at least three courses and there are many choices for each course. Bert was disappointed last night because we turned down our own bed. To compensate us for all the extra work we did he gave us double the chocolate he would have left on our pillows. Thanks for your comments. We love hearing from home folks.

Keep turning down your beds. Hoard the chocolates. Consider dropping crumbs for your route back. LOL. Sounds very tempting to stay on a strict diet. L.S.

ReplyDeleteMakes me want to go a cruise again. D
ReplyDeleteHow's the view? Any marine animals? Any slots!!? Getting lost in space and time sounds like a great adventure-can Bert track you with GPS. Glad you have countless course choices for dinner--like what? Thanks for a really riotous read. R and H.
ReplyDeleteAtom: Selbst Betten machen ist deutsche Gründlichkeit. Dadurch kann man die Belohnung (Schokolade) erhalten, und zu hause teuer Verkaufen. Ihr braucht den Weg nur noch einmal zu gehen, wenn Ihr dann dort bleibt. Wieviel Mahlzeiten gibt es. Seit Ihr bei dem Essen an bestimmte Zeiten gebunden, oder könnt Ihr 24 Stunden essen. Die Menge der Mahlzeiten bestimmt Ihr? Gibt es genügend Speiseeis?
ReplyDeleteAtom (weiblich): Sind die Wege für Euch jungen Mädchen ohne Hilfsmittel zu begehen? Auf welchen Decks wart Ihr schon? Welche Veranstaltungen habt Ihr schon besucht?
ReplyDeleteI loved L's comment about dropping crumbs for your route back. She is so funny!
