We rounded the Cape Of Good Hope this morning - couldn't see
anything as we were too far from land.
On the daily itinerary in the Seabourn Herald today was prize
game Baggo at 3:30pm. This is the first Baggo game of the cruise as someone -
no names - had mislaid the Baggo board and bags. Following last year's success
perhaps I can win a new Seabourn peak to replace the one lost yesterday.Click Here For More Photos
It's ok Seabourn you are off the hook as one of the guests on board read my comment on yesterdays blog and very kindly gave me a replacement peak...thanks Nick and Debbie.
New South African wines arrived on board yesterday - rumour has it there are 7000 bottles...enough for a few weeks!!
No Baggo...more technical problems as apparently they now
have the board but not the bags so we played a "hole in one" putting
competition instead - which is very difficult on a ship that is rolling and
pitching...and I won!! I told Vance I'd
better join the golf club when I get home...he went very quiet and then changed
the subject.....guess we all know what that means!!
Fabulous late afternoon temperature on the sundeck - with a
warm balmy breeze - perfect.
Tonight we dined with the captain and his wife Juvy on their
hosted table and what a coincidence - we met Peter and his wife Andrea who live
two doors away from our friends Steve and Maggie in Guernsey...small world!!
