No big rush to get going today, we've only got to be back in Sydney to drop the car off by 5pm and it's just under a 3 hour drive. Once we were ready to go with the car all packed up we drove up to Ross and Wendys caravan and to our surprise she had breakfast all ready to cook for us. So an hour later all filled up with yummy eggs and tomato on toast, bacon added for Rodd, we said our goodbyes promising to keep in touch. We had a fairly leisurely drive wi...

The last few days were sea days so lots of lazing around, trivia, shows, casino, dancing and of course a couple of cocktails! We spent a bit of time with Gary and Kaylene and Paul and Fiona, funny how you just continually run into the same people. They are a lovely couple and hopefully we'll keep in touch with them. One time we went up to the Plantation Buffet for lunch all the tables were full but we saw one of the big round tables just had one lady sitting...

If I can put up with these sea days I’m sure the ports...

Good move as there was hardly anybody there which made it a far better dining experience ( you might have figured after the check in story that we're not much for waiting in lines with the rest of the herd! ). Once we’d had our powdered scrambled eggs we made our way ...

Finally had a little bit of a sleep in today as it was around 1am before we'd fallen into bed the night before. Checked out at 10ish , leaving our luggage with the concierge and went off to find some breakfast, we ended up at Kafe Kez where they had an extensive menu including fresh juices so I was happy! Rodd opted for a Bacon and Egg Roll with BBQ sauce, cos he doesn’t get stuff like that very much anymore and I had poached eggs with avocado, tomato a...
