Day 21 At Sea, Not Ho Chi Min :(

Not much to report on this unplanned day at sea.  We had wonderful service in the dining rooms for all three meals.  Lynn and Jessica again reiterated how happy they were to be served in the dining room, rather than joining the congested areas of the buffet to eat our meals.

J and I played trivia and were only 3 questions off winning (which isn’t saying much because the winners got 10 out of 20 right!)  The bridge players then played bridge this morning.  I watched a formula one movie with Brad Pitt – and I unpacked my overnight bag which had been packed for our original plan to stay at a hotel in Ho Chi Min.

 

We had a lovely table in the Seven Seas for lunch – a four person table right by the window with our favourite serving team Sarah and husband Dan – so I used the QR code available at each table to praise them to the cruise line.  So hopefully the right people see the review.

 


 

It was another rough day at sea as they had sea sickness bags available at all the stairwells.  Lynn keeps taking medication for sea sickness and it is working so that is a win!

 



And the pool was netted off.  It had been cloudy in the morning but the sun did break through in the afternoon and the pool got a little busier.

 

I am down to one stem of flowers in my pringles chip containers turned vase.  Those flowers purchased in Taipei 3 weeks ago have served us well.

 

After dinner, we played a game of Five Crowns in the library.  There was a table full of Portuguese teens that were playing Monopoly in the room too.  There was so much delightful laughter in the room that Lynn had to turn down her hearing aids!  Those kids were fun to be around!

 


We have our modified plan to visit our new port in Vietnam tomorrow morning.  Sorry Kate that we didn’t get to come see you in your amazing city today and tomorrow!
