Days 13 and 14 - Final Days at Sea

The final 2 days at sea was a final chance for us to do the activities on board we hadn’t yet got a chance to do and to spend the last couple of days relaxing before we had to come back to reality. Some interesting highlights included:

  • The cooking demonstration (even the French Canadian cook made fun of New Zealand – “we have to buy something from them [cream] because you know, the economy is bad there, run by too much baaaaaaaad politicians”. LOL)
  • The kitchen galley tour, where we saw how and where is prepared (and got to ride 2 sets of escalators – escalators on a cruise ship!!!). It was an awesome sight, and heaven for Tori and I who are white good fanatics hahaha.
  • We attended the Captains Club cocktail party where free (yes FREE) cocktails; wine and champagne were handed out. Lets just say we stocked up during the 2 hours lol.
  • There was a champagne fountain and baked Alaska (cos everyone loves a baked US state…) in the mid-ship, and that night, Zoltina-J (our ‘delightful’ cruise director decided to wear a dress of the Australian flag – GAG).
  • We won twice more at trivia – key rings and caps today!
  • On the last day of the cruise, I had 2 main breakfast dishes, 2 mains and dessert for lunch and the full 4 courses for dinner… I felt like a fat heffer!

So that is all for the Pacific Dawn, Fijian Treasures cruise with your passengers (Zoltina-J like sweeping hand movements), Tori, Andrew, Rob and I. Hope you found the blog entries at least mildly amusing! :-p
