Saturday is HOT ROCK night

The days was fairly quiet as we are ailing from San Juan to Fort Lauderdale which will take just over two days sailing and where should arrive around 0700 in the morning, but first the rest of the day.

We had our usual breakfast and Jennifer spent time doing lots of reading whilst Noel spent time on blogs and photos and chatting to people on skype etc. It was planned to be a formal night with black tie etc but we did not fancy it and had booked a table at the Grill where we could enjoy the hot rock experience. We thought it might be busy as we could not get a booking until 2000 but we do like and early dinner.



So at 1915 we went to the Grill with a view to having a beer in the bar but we were lucky enough to be seated right away and strangely on the next table to the Chinese couple from Vancouver we had befriended in the other restaurant. Anyway we sat down and had a brief chat and then ordered our for for which we cook on a extremely hot stone. Jennifer ordered a salad along with some black cod and Noel some Madagascar prawns along with a nice filet mignon and some fries to top it all off.

After dinner we returned to suite to watch a film, no dancing for us, and then chose to watch Helen Mirren play the part of GOLDA the film about Golda Meir the Israel Prime Minister who was directly involved in the Yom Kipper war. A most interesting film and yet why is it religious group and religions just have to fight??? when nobody, but nobody wins.

Oh well we gain another hour tonight and so we are now 5 hours behind the UK. Tomorrow is another full sailing day.

see you tomorrow
