Onward to Oman

Tuesday April 8

After our 2 exciting days in Mumbai we set sail for Oman. It was great seeing the lights of the city growing smaller and dimmer as we sailed away on more calm seas with a clear sky and a half moon above us.

We really enjoy the days at sea as it gives us a chance to meet other passengers, participate in whatever activities take our fancy or just kick back and rest. Of course there's never a shortage of eating options so we use the stairs and do a few laps of the promenade deck every day. For example, today we've attended a talk about "The Art of Collecting Art", a workshop on using your digital camera, a wine tasting, enquired about the options for independent touring in Oman, relaxed around the pool and met some new people - and all this before 5pm!

Tonight is another formal night so it's time to get the good gear out and glam up before we head off to dinner. It's a busy life on board but somebody has to do it :)

Wednesday April 9

Another busy day on board as we sail towards Muscat, the capital of Oman. As mentioned before security has been tightened up concerning pirate "watch" which has given us a chance to chat to the security people as we do our walk around the promenade deck. It's been a second day of interesting activities, exercise to offset the meals we're enjoying, as well as some relax time around the pool. Of course there is a high quality show put on each night, and tonight's was really good with a comedian/impersonator for some variety.
