Saturday April 18 2009 - Bright sunny day, today with a high of 26 degC (79 degF), I spent most od the morning working on my suntan. We had lunch in the main dining room, first time since we came on board, as the buffet is getting wilder as out-of-control seniors run riot. We went to a gameshow, Liars Club, where you have to determine who is telling the truth from four celebrities on stage. We got zero out of five correct, but had a good time throwing marshmallows at the people on stage, Bill had the idea at lunch and the maitre d‘ was happy to supply the marshmallows, he even suggested we could have some ripe tomatoes as well. Tonight was a formal night, so we were all dressed up in our finest attire, right after dinner, we changed into shorts and went up to the pool for an evening swim, then an early night as we have to be up at 05.00am tomorrow. One of the passengers has arranged the same tour that Princess offers, so we cancelled our ships tour and joined the passenger’s tour at less than half the price, I’ll let you know tomorrow night how it all went.

Two more sea days after Salalah
Friday April 17 2009 - It‘s a beautiful partly cloudy day as we head North West in the Red Sea. We‘ve left the pirates far behind, the coast of Sudan is a hundred miles off the port side and Saudi Arabia is a hundred miles off the starboard side. The sea is medium to high waves, but the ship is remarkably stable and level, probably as we‘re moving at close to top speed. There was a special interest lecture at 01.45pm this afternoon, ‘Mind stunts and memory techniques‘, I meant to go, but forgot about it. We played trivia this afternoon and won, with a stunning score of 17 out of twenty, ‘which superstar had a snake named muscles?‘, later we watched the big production show, Rhythms of the City.
