Day 9 at Sea - Wednesday 27 February 2013
Today is our last of five days at sea before arriving in
Papeete, Tahiti tomorrow morning. Since
leaving Wellington we have travelled 2300 nautical miles. I must say the days
seem to be flying by.
We were pleased with our score at Trivia this morning in
the Pub, the questions were quite difficult but we managed 13 1/2. They only gave us half a mark for our answer
‘bat’ they said we should have answered ‘fruit bat’…. Oh well… we’re not
playing for the Town Hall Clock….. Our team mates from New York are lovely and
we spend ages after Trivia chatting, next thing we know it’s lunch time.
The weather today is gorgeous, very warm and sunny and
as Captain Chris Wells said in his midday report “the sky is decorated with the
odd fluffy cloud here and there”.
We thoroughly enjoyed the Variety show in the Royal
Court Theatre this evening. The entertainment on board has been excellent, and
the Cunard dancers are absolutely first class.
Afterward it was off for a few dances before bed, hopefully to burn off
a few calories. So glad we don’t have a
set of scales in our bathroom. J
Early to bed tonight because tomorrow we arrive early
into Papeete and we want to be up early to watch our arrival. We’ve ordered
breakfast to be brought to our cabin so we can enjoy it all from our balcony.
Our departure from Papeete isn’t until 9.30pm so we’ve got a nice full day
there.

Thanks Karen. We're in Papeete today and I'm sitting here at an internet cafe enjoying a cool beer. We don't sail until 9.30pm so will make the most of a lovely day here. x
