Our 21st day at sea, which means that we're 20% through the cruise. It's going so fast. The weather has gotten much cooler, much quicker than I expected. It was only 18 at lunch time. Because of this I decide to take part in the individual quiz, which was on capitals. I scored a lousy 9 out of 20 and was 1st equal! Of course I lost in the tie break. The men dropped 2 points in the Battle of the Sexes. We're still in the lead going into the final day, whic...

Australia Day. Anchored off Cabo San Lucas, so we had to tender in. This was a first for me. We used the ship's lifeboats. After breakfast I was unable to walk on the Promenade Deck, so I did 10 laps of the Sun Deck, I have no idea how far that is. I'd booked a whale watching trip for today. We travelled about four hundred metres into the bay past the ship. There were lots of pelicans and sea lions both in the harbour and the bay. They started serving m...

Another sea day. Did my washing first thing this morning, walked a mile then sunbathed by the Riviera Pool for a change. Its getting cooler again, only 28 today. The men pulled a few more points ahead in the Battle of the Sexes. Only two more days of the battle to go.

I was supposed to be going white water rafting today. I'd agreed everything with a company, when I realised that I'd booked it for a day too early. I never had a reply to my email informing them of my mistake. Nevertheless I waited at the right place at the right time, but they never appeared. I found an Internet cafe and there among my emails was a reply agreeing to the date change and also changing the time to 10 am. I was reading the mail at 11!! The...

I'm having a sun bathing free day today. Breakfast in Cafe Bordeaux, then a TWO mile walk. I went to my first Solo Travellers coffee morning. The usual Battle of the Sexes and then lunch. The men have increased their lead again. After lunch I wrote emails for sending tomorrow in Huatulco. Then I had a manicure and pedicure, which meant I had to give the chocoholic tea a miss. There will be another chance during the next sector. Black and white night t...
