No History Lesson Today!

Hi, this is Bettie, we are at sea today with no port of call so I am going to tell you about our daily activities. Each morning we have our breakfast delivered to our stateroom and enjoy dining alfresco on the veranda. We then leave our bed unmade, dirty dishes  and water spotted bathroom and join the others for an exciting day in a new city. Greg has given you a great description of our daily adventures so I will not repeat. After a day of sightseeing we return to the ship and are greeted with a cool cloth to wipe the days sweat away . We then proceed to our state and...voila, the bed is made, dirty dishes have disappeared, and the bathroom is spotless! After getting a light lunch in one of the 3 restaurants it is now time to relax with our feet up and sometimes our eyes shut too.  Our next chore is to decide where to dine that evening. One of the venues specializes in Italian fare. This is a five course menu with wine choices of red or white. Another option is a themed dinner with a different cuisine each night. The third restaurant features the products of the country where we are in port. Now if we don't want to "dress" for dinner we can choose from the pool side bar or two other buffet style eating areas. They also have specialty dinners. The night after visiting Marseille France we had fantastic Bouillabaisse. No lack of outstanding culinary delights on this ship.



Each evening we go to the Star Theater for entertainment. One night it was the music of ABBA. We have not been disappointed in any of the performances. Needless to say this has been an adventure of a lifetime for us.
