<p>April 14th At Sea I do need sea days to recuperate from shore days. This one turned out to be fairly typical with us spending the morning in the Commodore Club watching us sail through the passing rainsqualls and attending lectures. I had been looking forward to the…</p>
<p>April 13th Mahe, Seychelles When I woke up this morning we were sailing past the smaller islands in the Seychelles. It looked like a beautiful sunny day, and I was soon up and ready to go. Soon after the ship docked we met up with Dan and Irene and headed ashore. We…</p>
<p>April 12th At Sea Yay! The internet is working again today. Although we had the crossing of the line ceremony yesterday, we actually crossed the equator today. Welcome to the southern hemisphere. We went to see Jenny Bond’s talk in the morning – excellent as usual and…</p>
<p>April 11th At Sea High Risk Area Security Precautions Day When we left Penang we noticed that the ship’s anti pirate equipment had been installed on deck 3. Today’s Daily Programme advised us that from this evening until after departure from Port Victoria we would be…</p>
<p>April 10th At Sea It was a bright and sunny day, but we had other things on our mind. Having rashly had the bright idea to give the Cruise Critic crowd a talk on safaris, we now had to work on it. But first Brian went to the talk on an Introduction to Smart Home and…</p>
<p>April 9th Colombo Tuk Tuk Tuking Along My favorite blogger, Roscoe, had described his interesting time in Sri Lanka on a tuk tuk tour. It sounded like a great way to spend the day sight seeing. Evana from Cruise Critic did some serious research, and found a company…</p>
<p>April 8th At Sea A day Full of Thunderstorms. We were confused about what the time was when we woke up as our phones had adjusted to the new time zone, but out watches haven’t. Even though I have Bluetooth and an app on my phone to keep my watch up to date, it still…</p>
<p>April 7th At Sea The Continued No Internet Day We may have gained an hour, but try telling that to my FitBit. Despite the fact that my cell phone, to which it is linked, has been able to get the time right, my FitBit is still an hour out of sync, which may make things…</p>
<p>April 6th Penang There was a delay with the ship being cleared again. Seeing as we were in Malacca yesterday, and as we have been hugging the coastline, I doubt we have been out of Malaysian waters, but it seems that the authorities delayed clearing the ship yet…</p>
<p>April 5th Malacca Lacking in Malacca We were at anchor in Malacca, so Brian and I went down to the Queen’s Room at 8:15 as they said they would start giving out tender tickets at 8:30. We were given tickets for the 2nd tender, so we happily settled in to read for a…</p>
<p>April 4th Singapore Singapore without a Sling Last time we were in Singapore we seemed to be docked half way to China at the container port, luckily this time we were at the Marina Bay Cruise Terminal. After disembarking we had to go through immigration and customs….</p>
<p>April 3rd At Sea This morning’s talk was on “Penang at War” in preparation for our visit to Penang later this week. Although not all of the anecdotes he discussed were actually related to Penang itself, it was still a very interesting talk, and I learned a lot. Good…</p>
