November 5 - The last sea and Cruise Day


Well, this is it – the last day! The wind has kicked up again and we have some chop again. We go for our last breakfast in Sabatinis. I shall miss the mimosas and the apple turnovers. After breakfast we met our trivia team and played the final morning game. We won!! It’s funny, but the last time we did this cruise we played together and we won the last morning as well. Prizes were a fridge magnet and a lanyard! It’s not the prizes that count. It’s the fun of winning plus the companionship with Bill and Irene and Bob and Flora.


After trivia we did a packing marathon. It’s easier to pack for the trip home but we acquired a few things along the way so we have an additional bag. We were in a hurry to finish because we had invited the Gang of Eight for a leftovers party. We had all accumulated wine, cheese, crackers and cookies and other goodies which needed to be consumed. We managed to do a good job with what was left! When you have good friends and a great ambience, every wine tastes great!


Tonight we went for our last dinner at Sabatinis again. We love the venue and decided it was the place to be. There has been discussion on the Cruise Boards about the new menu at the restaurant. We love it. Add to that the fact that we have had special things prepared for us and we are happy campers!


This has been a lovely cruise. The weather has been mainly cooperative except for our day in Cannes. The service has been exceptional. The food has been good and the company has been outstanding. But now we’re ready to be home.
