31st May – Day at Sea. Day before big Birthday. Jo rang in the morning to wish me Happy Birthday – very funny (its not till tomorrow). But as she said, at least she got in first.
Great news today – Belinda sent us a photo of her first scan (12 wks) – all is going well – ‘’Baby Bump’’ is kicking and waving – and perfect size. Attended Captain’s Circle Cocktail Party tonight.
1st June – Day at Sea.
Well, that birthday that I didn’t want - came and went. Woke to find balloons on our door and a card from the Captain. Ray bought me flowers which were delivered to our Cabin and he booked dinner for us in the only Specialty Restaurant onboard – Sterling Steakhouse. Spent a very relaxing day by the pool. Had wonderful meal (Shrimp Cocktail was actually King Prawns, followed by Fillet Mignon [Ray had Halibut] and then raspberry brulee. Waiters sang Happy Birthday and delivered special little cake with candle to our table. It was the slowest version of Happy Birthday I have ever heard – thought it would never end. Well at least that is another milestone gone.
As well, we crossed the Equator – usual messy celebrations on deck.
Happy (now belated) Birthday Jill! You really know how to celebrate a birthday! Love reading your blog. Does any of this compare to our mango plantation? :)
