Dinner

Does it sometimes seem like all people do on Cruise Ships is eat?

Well you certainly get to eat regularly . No need to skip breakfast because you don't have time to cook it or forgot to go shopping. Someone else is doing the shopping and the cooking and the dishwashing. All you have to do is find where the food is being served! Follow your nose!

Another dinner in the Club Restaurant, served by friendly waiters.

Mushroom tart for me to begin....

Carol's pesto with linguini

Shrimp cocktail for me

Not sure what this was....?

 Beef tri-tip with BBQ sauce for me

For Carol- a delicious mild white fish called Orange Roughy

Dessert- wonderful Black Forest cake-reminds us of Germany!

After another wonderful, satisfying dinner it was time for a show. A singer came on board the ship in Valetta. From the U.K, her name was Michelle Best. She was loud and had a decent voice and did some jokes/comedy banter between songs. She was working hard to please  but I wasn't in the mood for so much energy and left early to walk on the Promenade deck and enjoy the sea air.

Before the show , some of the cruise staff blew up balloons and threw them out for the audience to play with while waiting for Michelle. Good clean, child-like fun!

In the morning, when we woke, we would be off the coast of Sicily and would get our first look at Palermo.....
