This the last full day at sea before we arrive at St Johns, Antigua and so we had an easy day. Noel did quite a bit trying yet again to sort out the video unit in his sisters care home which had suddenly switched off.
Jennifer went to the auditorium to list to a presentation on something but was not impressed and came back earl y and then Noel waited for the Manchester United vs Chelsea game to start. The game was not the best and clearly Man U were the better team. Chelsea need to do something soon or head will roll. We went for dinner and by chance were were sat in the same place as the previous night where we had made the acquaintance of a Hong Kong Chinese couple who have lived in Vancouver for many years . As we had sat to them the previous night and a brief conversation we were able to continue and we had a nice evening of conversation. Clearly they are well off and do many cruises and their favourite cruise line is Silversea.
Noel had a problem with the previous nights main course, I had ordered sea bass with mashed potatoes and spinach but got the fish with mixed vegetables including cauliflower which is a NO NO for me and so I gave the Maître De and few words on departure but tonight they go it right. A New York Steak with mashed potatoes and spinach. The Chinese couple were a little concerned that I did not have a starter or desert but I explained the reasons why. He mentioned he liked a whisky before bed in the bar next door and we thought we would join him and we left the ladies and headed in to the bar and he ordered his special whisky drink which I thought I might try but was surprised that he tested his and whilst the waiter was pouring mine said he was off to bed! anyway Jennifer soon appeared and we had a drink and then went back to the suite
We had to turn back the clocks another hour tonight but need to be u early for our 3 hour of Antigua tomorrow.
