The day at sea spreads out in front of us like a smorgasbord of options. An early run upstairs yields fresh OJ and a latte plus a couple of pastries for good measure (just enough fuel for a workout). Three lectures, one on the pearling industry in northern Australia during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, another on Admiral Arthur Phillip, founder and first governor of Australia, and a destination piece on Hamilton Island and the Great Barrier Reef, our next stop.
I'm loving the memoire writing class, Joe Kita teaches a beginners as well as a more advanced class -I'm taking both :)
Today was the Jazz themed gala buffet, a food extravaganza we enjoyed a lot. The crew puts a tremendous effort into it and the result is quite mind blowing.
The food continues to be very good to great and we are mixing it up all the time by eating in different venues at different times. Our table mates are really nice and we enjoy meeting up for a drink or simply to catch up on our respective going-ons since we're not all together for dinner every night.
Went to bed early as our excursion to the reef departs at 5:45 am.
The weather continues to be just how I like it: hot and humid! I spend quite a bit of time on our veranda, the scenery is amazing and ever changing.
