Last night in the Centrum the hand over to Thompson/Tui was started. Lots of people, cake, balloons, music and a few speeches. Since I was standing as part of the group on the stairs I will completely spare you pictures. Did I mention speeches? The Royal personal were short, heartfelt and clear. The Thompson personnel, at least the ones from the Miami home office came across as a bit condescending. Tui Discovery II? Please, how about a real name…
And no, I did not touch the cake. After attempting to sit in a lounge for part of the morning and having to move multiple times due to people coughing we retreated to one of our cabins for the afternoon.
It also was formal night. I skipped the rack of lamb in favor of mushroom curry..
Good progress today – I’m now on two columns past the midpoint. Of course, I would be a much happier bunny had I not forgotten two colors…
