Maybe a bit of media attention on this cruise. Should be a very interesting speech.

[TOM CRUIZES]

Could be quite interesting, according to todays newspaper he will be showing off:rolleyes: some dance steps (that shoudnt take long) and some lectures on his days in reporting/journalism, could be some interesting Qs for him to answer.

HI Tom

 

Well here I am on Oceana...

 

What to say???...weather hasn't been that great...first 2 days good then next 2 days really bad (Curacao & Aruba)....Cost Maya was fab. Cozumel also good, were supposed to be in Grand Cayman tody, but once again,. seas to rough for tender, so port call cancelled...tomorrow is Ocho Rios, and we've had mail through door saying all water themed trips are cancelled due to excessive amounts of rain in Jamaica...so dissappointed again...

 

Apart from that, its been okay...

 

HOpe to write better things later in week...

Karen so sorry to hear about your bad weather and cancelled tours/ports, hope things improve for the rest of the cruise otherwise there may not be any alcohol left for us next wk, bad weather apart im sure the rest of the cruise is good, how where your flts across to Barbados and who were they with, was there free drinks etc and did you get to go to the Duty free in Barbados before you sailed.

As regards our cruise we have heard that John Sergeant from Strictly Come Dancing is on our cruise, they think thats why he backed out of the competition, could be interesting, anyway enjoy whats left and have a great time.
