First post update!

First Monday

Dan woke up in the middle of the night, not sure if it was people outside the room or the rocking of the boat, probably the latter. We got up a tad late and by the time we had breakfast all the sunbeds had gone. That is our one gripe so far, not enough of them. And most people seem to ignore the 'not reserving them' rule and the 'don't leave unattended for more than 30 minutes' rule. Pfft.

So instead we just walked around the boat having a few drinks, chilling out, they say it's only 19c today but it feels damn hot in the sun! Oh, the weather so far has been fantastic, beautiful blue skies. We just hope it's still depressing back in Blighty!

We went to a wine tasting session, very nice. Sat with a women from Newcastle (we could launch into detrimental footy songs here, but we won't) and a couple from Toronto. We signed up while drunk on our first evening and the people we sat with were quiet clued up on wine, we did learn a bit, which was nice.

Today is the first formal evening so we dolled up for the occassion. We had drinks with the officers in the Atrium (we even got a free one!) and then went for a nice meal. Dan's was particularly stunning, a fantastic piece of fillet steak, he was very impressed. Then we had a few beers before retiring for the night.
