Day 15 Tuesday 05 March at Sea, Hilo tomorrow
Another leisurely start to the morning. We never miss the Trivia at 10:00am in the
Pub and there’s always a good crowd there.
I must say having a lot of British crew there’s a lot of good British
humour and banter; they never fail to give everyone a laugh.
We decided it time we took up Croquet so off we went to
have a go. It’s actually not as easy as
it looks. We had a couple of games and
didn’t win either so will need more practice. It’s quite a challenge but a lot
of fun. Also thought it time we had some
good exercise and we got blown around the deck with the very strong breeze. I
love the fact that you can walk right around this ship, many ships don’t have
that. It’s exactly .9 of a mile or 1.4kms. I think it’s another tradition of
Cunard to have a Promenade deck. After all that exercise we had worked up a thirst
and hunger so it was off to the Pub for lunch……another habit forming. J
We were given an invitation to a complimentary wine tasting this afternoon. All good quality wines, two whites and two
reds. Two were from France, one from Chile and one from Australia. We were both
feeling ‘hery vappy and bull of feans’ afterward….lol. So it was time for scones with Strawberry jam
with lashings of cream, a cup of tea and a lie down.
Tonight the theme is the Roaring 20’s. How on earth are
Roy and I going to do the Charleston, what a sight that will be….lol. Many people will dress up and we will have a
go with what we’ve got with us.
The show is a variety show tonight which is on before
dinner for us tonight then after dinner it’s straight into the Roaring
20’s. I bet some will be dressed to
perfection in their 20’s gear.
Well that was a great night, so much dancing I bet we’ll
both have aching legs tomorrow while we’re trying to have a wander around Hilo.
