here is another section about yet another activity I have undertaken
Tuesday 17th of January
Overnight and through most of today
the sea has been a little more aggressive. Not bad but a few rollers have taken
some by surprise! Strange really when we travelled all through the Bay of
Biscay in sunshine and calm and now in the Med it’s been grey and rolly!!!
Nevertheless it’s been another great
day aboard Black Watch. Food is just excellent and we are a little more aware
of all the various areas on the ship. The staff are just brilliant too; one of
the waitresses has taken to calling me Sir Fred and another Uncle Fred.
Suuske has been very active again
with another 20 times around the deck. (5times is a mile). She has also been
swimming in the sea water pool. Enjoying herself? I should say so!
Cabaret was great again this evening
with Suzi Woods taking main stage. Fantastic voice and accompanied by the
brilliant Black Watch orchestra.
We arrive in Malta tomorrow morning
and look forward to seeing Valletta.

I am up at my usual time,
so thought I would write something as well.
It is really interesting
to see that many of the fellow cruisers
are older people. In fact I am probably one of the younger travellers on
board. However, for me it brings home
the concept
of personalisation. All lectures, and
other activities are fully attended, and age is just a number here. I can’t see
many of these people just sitting in a daycentre, although many have physical
challenges.
As Fred said, I swam in the outside
pool- the water was lovely, and the
waves were fantastic- I love swimming in
the sea, but am always worried about jelly fish or standing on crabs- no chance of that here- I will certainly do it again.
I too am looking forward to seeing Valetta
again- it is some time since we were
here, and, as the port is so near the town, we have decided to go out
independently today- fred has the buggy, so we should have a nice time.
