Finally we are on the way home....


On the cruise there are two nights that are "Formal wear only" in the main restaurants and one of these nights was reserved for the trip home.  Lots of glamorous frocks (some not quite so), lots of perfume (the duty free shop must have been doing overtime) and plenty of suits for the fellas.


This fun couple we meet one day at lunch and from then on kept running into each other daily. As you can see they were getting right into the swing of the season. HO HO HO


Now I am not doing names because I haven't asked the 
 the table for permission to use the picture. Every night of the cruise we met at 7.45pm for the extravagant 5 course dinner and compulsory bottles of wine. One night I was missing (locked up in quarantine), another was seasick on the way over, but if possible we all made the effort to catch up on what each other had been up to. I think we were one of the very few tables that did this because on the first night the dining room was packed, but as the trip went on the tables split up and in the end we were usually one of the only full tables.  Our waiters were Percy and Michael and they had to put up with us every night.


A big thanks to everyone on our table for making the trip that much more enjoyable.
