9 March – At Sea

Lynne has just about recovered from the dodgy prawn incident.

Now back in the Caribbean and speeding along on our way to Aruba, with the Colombian coast on our right (starboard) side. Have stopped in Cartagena on a previous cruise but not on this itinerary. As I recall, the town is a bit run down but there are some interesting places further inland – Mayan remains, jungle etc.

Trivia was with original team again but did not trouble the scoreboard – around 13 but winners had 17.

Ray Mears did a question and answer session with the entertainments boss. Usual, pre-prepared, fawning stuff, with latest book available in the foyer.

Quite interesting and focusing on his latest interest – tracking – plus detailed account of how he assisted the police in their search for a serial killer and found him, almost. Well, he was in the same forest.

Seems he has also upset the Australian passengers by giving his views on solving the issues with the Aboriginals.

Bit more pedalling in the afternoon. Around 4pm seems to be quietest time for the bikes.

Gala evening again but decided not to put on best frocks and had quiet dinner instead.

PS As we are in the Caribbean, post will be listed under that menu tab.
