It’s our last sea day of this segment of my cruise. Tomorrow we have a short stop in a port called Eden, reported to be a lovely place as it should be with that name. Then on the 21st we’ll be back in Sydney to start the Grand Pacific Voyage. That will be bittersweet because I’ll be losing some of my new friends and I shall miss them. I’ve had great fun spending time with Deon and Val, sisters-in-law from Cairns, and Leon and Kim from Raleigh. My trivia teammates Jim and Kristie, Joylian and Steve, and Cynthia and Richard will be greatly missed. And there have been so many others with whom I’ve enjoyed sharing a drink, a meal or a tour. One of the very best reasons for cruising is to meet so many nice people and I know that many I may see again sometime.
Now to the big news of the day. It was our last Trivia and ta-da! We won again! Joylian and Steve had brought a good luck mascot we’ve had on our table for the last couple of days and we won both times. Despite the fact they are leaving, they gave me Miss Kitty to keep for our onward cruises. I shall keep it as my treasured possession and bring it with me as the four of us left of “Ship for Brains” continue our journey. We have new recruits boarding in Sydney and I know they’ll be happy to have a good luck mascot too.
