At Sea 16/03/2014

The day spent at sea was a relaxing one.  Started the day with a session in the gym - that's to
negate the onset of the guilts for all the food you consume.  Seriously, it's just on tap 24 hrs -
very dangerous.  Our table allocation for dinner has put the three of us with two lovely ladies
(sisters) from the gold coast.  Makes be the thorn among many roses so it's all good.
There are 200 aussies on the cruise so you run into the accent regularly.
Today we passed through the strait of Messina to the western tip of Sicily and out into the open sea
bound for Katakolon.  Clocks go forward an hour tonight which puts us 8 hrs behind home.
Catch you tomorrow.
The view from our cabin this morning when we awoke - moonset

Smooth sailing through the strait

I'm sorry, I will only be posting further photos when I get access to a faster connection so whenever I can, I'll do that and attach the link to the blog of that day.
