Day 9 - Wednesday 24 July - At Sea

Not a lot to report today as it was a lazy day at sea. Late rising followed by breakfast on the Lido deck and then we got stuck into reading for the day. Philip was engrossed in a Lee Child's Jack Reacher book and ended up on the balcony of the cabin reclined with his feet up on the table reading for most of the day.

Finally finished the book and so he went for his daily 5km walk around the Sun deck. Wanted to shoulder charge some people who were blocking the walkway but refrained.

While Philip walked Alison counted his laps and was waiting to dash to the starboard side of the ship to capture sunset over the ocean. She did a pretty good job with the picture below and the camera battery said "no go"! So the second photo showing the sun on the horizon sinking into the sea was taken from the cabin balcony with Philip's phone.

Dinner tonight and then to the show in Pharoah's Theatre. Tonight a Kiwi comedian, juggler. Philip added to the show for the people in the top part of the theatre when on his way to seats (you have to be quick to beat others!) he tripped on a step and ended up flat on his face on the walkway - ouch sore knee. The show was quite entertaining and so we have headed to bed with a smile on our faces.

Walked into our cabin and no towel animal on the bed to greet us. But then we looked up and hanging from a light fitting was tonight's creation.
