After
the slight disappointment of St Lucia main town we are looking forward to Aruba
which we understand has a better reputation, but let’s see. Today was all about
sea miles to Aruba and so in the morning we took it a little easy and then off
to the Gym for about one hour of walking, cycling and workouts. After another
shower we had lunch of a bowl of soup together with a sandwich which was going
to be enough.
The
afternoon was spent lazing around until such time as we needed to get ready for
the evening Black Tie function, dressing up for the fourth time and another
three times to go. We checked the menus to the two restaurants and decided that
the carvery would be nice for a change but as we were a little early we went
outside on deck for a pre-dinner drink in the warm sunshine. From there to the
restaurant only to find very few couples were following the BLACK TIE request
which was a little surprising but none there less we enjoyed our light meal and
then retired back to the outside bar to finish off the wine and listen to the
rather good music.
An
easy day really but it will hopefully prepare us for tomorrow.
