T&J Posted October 3, 2006 Author #576 Share Posted October 3, 2006 I just had a quick lite bite to eat...some rice and soup in the Panorama Buffet for dinner....no one is up there at all but a couple of tables...I don't even know why they even open it at all for dinner? Went back to bed around 4:30pm and took a nap and tried to rest for a couple of hours. The continues to be a little rough with some big swells every now and then but nothing like yesterday IMHO. We arrive in Mauritius tomorrow morning at 8:00am although with this Captain we could get in even earlier. We are set to sail at 6:00pm. I might get a driver and go to the bird park etc.... Don't think the "Office" is in the cards tonight! More to follow later tonight from the Pacific Princess..... Tony :cool: :eek: :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T&J Posted October 3, 2006 Author #577 Share Posted October 3, 2006 OK just about to leave the Internet Cafe....the ship is still moving quite a bit tonight as we are heading at 18 knots all day. More to follow tomorrow morning from the Pacific Princess enroute to Mauritius. Tony :cool: :eek: :cool: P.S. read the thread of another tragedy at sea!...Looks like I've created another stir.

arlenemilt Posted October 3, 2006 #579 Share Posted October 3, 2006 I don't like tea...YUK! Tony I don't like it either and only drink it when I'm sick. But somehow tea has healing powers; better than soup. Try the flavored herbal tea. I prefer the apple or the orange. Lemon isn't bad either.

kruisey Posted October 3, 2006 #583 Share Posted October 3, 2006 The seas have improved this afternoon and it's not as rough as in the past 48 hours or so. Came back from lunch and had a great penne in fresh tomato sauce and garlic with chocolate tratuffo for dessert. Went to the "Office" to check things out and helped out some players...my help might of been more usefull if the cards would have cooperated! I really don't feel that well this afternoon this congestion seems to be turning into a flu perhaps...took something for it this afternoon but doesn't seem to be helping at all. Might have to canel dinner for tonight and just take it easy. More to follow from the Pacific Princess. Tony :cool: :eek: :cool: Several have come down with colds and sore throats....A lady I play trivia with went to the medical department yesterday she says the place was filled with coughing sneezing.........Oh well its better than Norwalk. Hope you are feeling better now....Kruisey.:) Envy4.....can you e-mail me at true.grit@hotmail.com.........I have some information for you.

Hi Dave.... Will try to answer your queries one at a time. 1. The Royal cruise is starting in Athens on November 4th and I'm sure Tony will be doing lots of "live froms" from all his cruises in the upcoming months. We are also cruising together, with many other friends, on the Golden in March (starts in Buenos Aires). 2. We are in Boynton Beach, approx. 50+ miles from Miami. Probably about 60 to the port. 3. I am assuming you mean the Hard Rock Casino? If so, it's not too far from Port Everglades; perhaps 10 minute taxi ride. Arlene Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T&J Posted October 4, 2006 Author #592 Share Posted October 4, 2006 Ok so the plan is to have breakfast in 15 minutes time and get my laundry bag ready for my cabin steward and we plan on going ashore around 9:30am or so and visit the bird park first. Would you believe that the Internet Cafe is already full at 6:40am???? We are here in Mauritius from 8:00am until 6:00pm where we then set sail for Reunion Island the next day. Alright going for my espressos now. More to follow later this morning from the Pacific Princess. Tony :cool: :eek: :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One computer by the door has been out of order for 5 months and several each day have to be rebooted and you have to harrass them on the Pursers desk to get it done!...what a nightmare on this ship for internet!

T&J Posted October 4, 2006 Author #600 Share Posted October 4, 2006 How funny is this. This morning the Captain comes on the PA and warning us that there is civil unrest in Port St Louis and not to go to that part of the island or near any public or governement buildings. They also printed a special bulletin and delivered it to our cabins early this morning as well. Turns out it's all happening in the Seychelles only a couple of thoussand miles away! They modified tours because of this as well this morning...we'll someone screwed up! Going ashore now and seeing the Bird Park and then going to Crown Beach. More to follow later this afternoon from the Pacific Princess. Tony :cool: :eek: :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
