Tried posting earlier today but lost my text, yet again. We’ve had a slow afternoon so I tried working on my blog which is VERY far behind. Can’t get the pictures to upload.

Yes, Alan and I were on the Grand Concourse this morning. I was leading him on the Mariner Tour of Trees. In other words, we were checking out all the Christmas decorations, which are beautiful. Skipped going ashore in Nuka Hiva. We were dressed and ready to go but the rain poured. I’ll have to look at my pictures from last time.

I intended to go to afternoon Pooch. Came back to the cabin after lunch for a “short” nap. You can guess what happened – I slept right through Pooch. Sorry to read that I missed David’s excellent wine choices. Oh well, there’s always tomorrow.

Back to last night’s formal dinner, rack of lamb (thought about you Ngaire) and Grand Marnier soufflé were all a girl could hope for. Alan and I shared a table and lots of laughs with Jan and Jim. Then, on to watch Sally Jones perform. Very good act.

We were planning our first dinner in the suite tonight; but, we have cabin fever so will do that another night. Brolied Tuna Fillet in Compass Rose or Osso Bucco in La Vernda? Decisions, decisions.
