If you read this, and you don’t know me, then I should tell you I work on a cruise ship.
Sunday was Monte Carlo. Monte Carlo picture and a close up of the Monte Carlo Casino.
Monday was Portofino (pictures to come)
Tuesday was Porto Cervo (charming, little, no pics)
Wednesday was St. Tropez (I was dead on my feet. No knowledge of this. I think I took pictures.)
Thursday was Barcelona. This was an embarkation day. Embarkation day is the day when all the current passengers leave and all the new passengers come. It is very busy! Plus I got my cabin, pictures to come.
Today is Friday. Friday we spent all day at sea, a sea day as opposed to a port day (where we are naturally in port).
It was an amazing day, clear, warm, and calm seas. There was a huge pod of porpoises starboard this morning, playing in mirror flat water some nearing for the ruffle of wake. (Awesome!)
I ran around the promenade deck four times, which is a mile. I went to the slop chest, which is the company store, for some soap and water.
I went to the Captain’s black tie formal and had wonderful sushi. I sat with three co-workers at dinner, a Kiwi, a Canadian and a guy from Namibia. For how eclectic the group, we have surprisingly similar views on the world and on religion. It was interesting.
We, the Kiwi, Canadian and Namibian, work in the nerdery or geekery where we fix id10t errors. I had never heard of a nerdery or a geekery before. I like these terms. I have decided to use them lots.
Geekery.
Nerdery.
Geekery.
I should sleep. We arrive in Cannes at 8 am. I have to be at work by 6:30 to prep for arrival.
I get to go ashore in Cannes! Very exciting!
More, far more interesting stuff to come from cabin 4143.
