We are now on our way to Barbados and enjoyed a sea day today. We didn’t go to the show last night as the description sounded like something we certainly wouldn’t like. Listed as Jordan Bennet in the FeelGood Concert, acclaimed entertainer of film, TV and Broadway fame performs his one man show with all types of music and a touch of humour. The LA Times said; “Jordan Bennett is often quite mesmerising. ” That to me says give him a wide berth!
Our table mates who went didn’t think too much of it when we were discussing the subject at dinner so it sounds like we made a good decision. There were only six of us at our table last night as one couple were still feeling the effects from the night before and had chosen to use the buffet which allowed them to eat earlier and also to regulate their intake. Both complaining that they couldn’t sleep due to the fact they had eaten too much.
Well, Jesus works in mysterious ways and yet again he overheard that one couple on our table had booked to go to the Tuscan Grille next Thursday, this is another specialty restaurant and again has a cover charge of $45 per person. The question was posed if we would be interested in a similar deal to Qsine. Well being as we would involve the whole table again it would be a shame to miss out on such a good deal so we duly accepted the invitation assuming out absent friend would feel the same way. I will at this point confess to having misquoted the price we got at Qsine, it wasn’t what i thought which was 50% off but actually $50 per couple and is the same price we have been offered this time. Both restaurant’s are advertised at $45 per person so it’s not quite half price but still an excellent deal.
My body clock is still slowly adjusting and i was up just before sunrise this morning which is a bit better than 4:30! I will probably just fall into sync as it’s time to come home.
Nicole again ordered coffee which we enjoyed on the balcony and today it was in glorious sunshine. The inclusion of some pastries made it all the better and this could become a regular thing, particularly on sea days.
Not long after we had demolished the trays contents we applied our sun cream then made our way up to the Solstice Deck where we had pretty much the pick of the sunbeds and throughout the day we had to endure beautiful clear blue skies (along with the odd cloud of two) with temperatures between 24-28C.
As it was a sea day we avoided the Oceanview Cafe and took in a quick burger and fries from the Mast Grille which I really enjoyed. It was just a case then of going back to the cabin to shower and cool off a bit and making the most of the balcony.
There isn’t much else to add today but tomorrow there should be plenty to talk about.
