One of my favourite things is looking at supermarkets. This one was at the back of a Department store. very good displays.




















Love the cheese sections.

I was first one back on the bus. I was sitting behind the guide. She turned around and told me she actually appreciated my presence on the tour. More sensible than the usual cruise passengers. I felt good so back to the ship.




We were on Deck 9 which is the one below the Captains Observation post. About half way along.
Lunch at the Japanese restaurant Seishin.




And a nice plate of sea urchin.


Trivia every afternoon. We did reasonably well though another team were often the winners. We weren't alone suspecting some skullduggery.
After trivia I went to the golf putting. The other regulars thought I was a regular player with a low handicap. Truthfully just extreme luck. I won nearly 50% of the time. needless to say I enjoyed it. The worst day when I had 2 holes in 1 plus a 3 putt and came third. First was 3 holes in 1 and second 2 holes in 1 and a 2 putt. Both women.
We usually went to dinner at 1830 - 1900. This night was back in Atlantide. I forgot to photograph the main menu and this is the copy at the entrance behind glass. Sorry.


Mrsdrron had the mushroom tartlet followed by the scallops for main.




I started with the spicy octopus then lobster bisque with sea bass for mains.






OK but nothing memorable. In general the food quality has been slowly declining over the last few years. There was however one dramatic improvement which I complained about after our last 3 cruises. In fact on our last cruise they ran out of cheese after just a few days. I couldn't even get gorganzola in their Italian restaurant. This cruise however in all the main restaurants had a choice of 3 cheeses and they chnged every night. I often hd the cheese as my dessert and usually with all 3 cheeses. This was the cheese menu this night.
