HAPPY EASTER!
We had a beautiful Easter Mass. Father Kelly managed to find some hymnals and the late night piano player was kind enough to get up early to accompany our singing. John gave one of the readings. The theatre was quite full.
We have had a change to our itinerary and as John said, “The pirates won.” Captain Dag announced that it is not safe to go to Mombasa and Zanzibar so we are heading south to Port Louis, Mauritius, on April 6th and Reunion Island on April 7th. The rest of our schedule remains the same and we will hope to add another day safari as the one we had scheduled in Mombasa is no longer possible. The “shooters” we have on board don’t have a job anymore.
We enjoyed an Easter brunch and read our books on comfy furniture on the back of Deck 5.
Our Easter dinner was in the Compass Rose restaurant with Father Kelly and four other Catholic couples from our Mass group.
DAY 27
The seas are a bit rougher on this sea day but nothing too bad. We have been wearing a sea patch(or half of one)and it seems to work. A couple renewed their vows on the ship. The woman was in a bridal gown and had a sparkling tiara and glittery bracelets. She is the same girl we see walking for an hour every day with ankle weights and carrying weights. She then cleans up, dresses up and drinks champagne on the pool deck all afternoon.
