| Lots of these went into the mouth... |
Today Mother Nature was not our friend. Due to high winds, the Captain made the prudent, albeit disappointing, call to cancel our stop at Exmouth. It was not possible to run the tenders safely to shore. The disappointment was real as the opportunity to witness whale sharks in their natural habitat was a major highlight we were eagerly anticipating – let's be honest, the ship was not the drawcard for choosing this particular voyage!
However, safety first, and we fully understood the Captain's decision. So, with a shrug and a "what can you do?", we embraced the unexpected sea day with the resilience. We soldiered on, navigating the hardship of life at sea with extra visits to the buffets, room service, celebratory drinks, and a healthy dose of forced merriment!
Here's a peek at today's tides of fortune:
The good:
- Fiona, the Fearless again! She found the captain, spoke to him and got his signature for the scavenger hunt!
- Soaking up the sun and catching up on Vitamin D on the pool deck
- Turns out, we're not just good at relaxing – we're also rather adept at discussing literature! We held the inaugural session of our impromptu mini book club.
- We're coming second in progressive trivia. Go team BeeFee!
- We saw both sunrise and sunset
- The undeniable low point of the day was the disappointment of missing out on Exmouth and the incredible opportunity to see whale sharks. Fingers crossed for future opportunities!
- We were fartled again
The unexpected:
- Cash conversion! I enjoyed the Johnny Cash show a lot more than I thought I would 😂. Go the man in black!
Let's keep rolling with the waves...literally!
