Hi Family and friends
Yes we are on the high seas You may get this one twice as I did do an entry earlier today but it shot off into cyber space and I have no idea where it went.
Our first full day on the ship and we are still getting lost!!
Now for a quick update - Once all 2300 passengers onboard we had fire/sinking drill! Now that was exciting and we met some nice people whom we hope we never have to stand next to again because that would mean we are sinking for sure!!!
After that it was off to dinner We are on a table with two other people who have 10 children - 3 of their own and they adopted 7! They are from Newcastle and this is their 5th cruise. After dinner we stayed up and went to the Comedy Show at 10pm. That makes up for our very early night in Sydney.
Off to bed and yes it did rock but due to the waves and nothing more. It was like being on a train. Some rather strange noises though....
Before you knew it, it was breaky time and more food. Walked the deck. Twice around the deck is 1 Km but very windy today and no swimming = tomorrow.
We have lunch in the buffet where there are at least 10 stations and far too many choices.
We are now sitting in the Theatre waiting for the Show to start so will sign off now.
Matt - Tony said to tell you the captain of this ship is Italian and should this one run aground, this captain will be the last one off. NOt like the other gutless wonder!!!
Hope all is well.
Love from the Two Cruisers

Carolyn wow, it sounds like such fun. The food can be such a challenge can't it?....What to try is a big decision to have to make 6 times a day!!!! No sign of sea-sickness? That's good. Glad to hear you will be ready for any "fire/disembarking drama"!! Italian Captain doesn't sound too promising after the last one ran aground!!!! Thinking of you and wishing I was there. Have fun, Love Big Sis xxxxxxxxx
