Kimberley Coast

 

Kimberley Coast

Alright, let's cut to the chase and talk about today's happenings!

The good:

  • Crown Grill: We had a most excellent dinner at Crown Grill, one of the specialty dining restaurants onboard the ship. Our waiter was an absolute gem, the food was delicious, and to top it all off, we had a front-row seat to a breathtaking sunset. An unexpected culinary experience! 

The bad:

  • Kimberley Déjà Vu: Now, this isn't to say the Kimberley Coast isn't stunning, because it truly is. However, today's "scenic cruise" felt a tad repetitive. The landscapes bore a striking resemblance to yesterday's Yampi Sound. Adding to this, an unfortunate nearby bushfire cast a hazy veil over the views, somewhat diminishing their grandeur.
  • Less sleep: As we continue our journey eastward, the inevitable has occurred – we will need to adjust to the correct time zone. Farewell, stolen hour! You will be missed.

The unexpected:

  • Scavenger Hunt ShShipmates! Our quest for signatures for the scavenger hunt has unexpectedly blossomed into a fantastic opportunity to get to know the crew! Many went to great lengths in helping us locate staff of the specific nationalities that we needed as well as those elusive high-ranking officers. Today's impressive haul included the cast manager, business & brand manager, assistant hotel general manager, and guest services manager, just to name a few! The genuine enthusiasm and support from the crew have been a delightful surprise. 
Looking forward to another sea day tomorrow with a lot more friendly faces on board!
