Another Day At Sea


It's Sunday and we are on the 2nd leg of the cruise we have covered some 1160 nautical miles  from Rome to Venice. 2000 people got off in Venice was it something I said! But another 2000 go back on. So all good.
So now we are the veterans of the cruise we know it all! so didn't have to sit through the safety drill again just report and then we were dismissed back to our room. It was a wet start and we are being balcony dwellers today in our robes and catching up on some reading and THE BLOG.
Have ducked out to get food rations a couple of times and those glasses are still as still as the sea below, we'll until you pick them up again!

Peter G you can smuggle wine on board it just a mater of how you do it. When you come back on board thought the X-ray if they don't want to take it well that's their problem so happy days..... If they do they just put it away for you until you disembark on your final day. The Slovenian wine that we got on Thursday that just happen to make its way into my back pack have come in handy today, and the cab sauv 2003 that we found in a bottle shop for 10€ was a bargian, so it mayncome out later in the week and when in italy to not have a lemon chello would just be criminal don't you think. But wine everywhere over here has corks Hmmmm didn't pack a cork screw silly Peter. Michael our cabin boy comes to the rescue. Here on the ship over dinner you can opt to have wine by the glass or if you get a bottle and can't drink it all you can either take it back to your cabin recorked or they have a great system where they put your cabin No. on it and give you a receipt and they will get it from the cellars when you want no matter what restaurant you are dining in. So the other day we just couldn't  drink all our bottle at dinner so opt to bring it back to our cabin. Problem solved says Michael have a souvineer cork screw from Norwegian Cruise and said please keep it with his pleasure, maybe he saw our little stash.!!!
