Day 8 – at Sea


Thursday 14th April –That is not a mistake. We have had two Thursdays.
Tony had a bad night, a tummy upset, nauseated. Now he knows what I feel like when I get a 'you beaut' Migraine or heaven forbid Seasickness. He can not blame the feast in Apia as no one else had the same problem. He fine now thank goodness. 
It was a slow day, got up at 930am and really did nothing all day. We had a swim around 3pm, Lesley and Ross joined us in the pool closest to the MUTS screen. We watched people fail miserably at Wii archery in the comfort of the pool.
Dinner as usual was good there are five of us occupying a table for eight, so we like to mix up the seating, one night we are all side by side, the next we space it out. Just for variety! Must say there is a very poor turn out in our area of the dining room. The three waiting teams around us, including ours, should all have 20 people each, they average 9 apiece.
The show tonight was SAD. Nathan Foley, singer (so you think you have heard that name before? Maybe so, he WAS part of a kids group HIGH FIVE).Well he has a nice enough voice, the Princess band was great backing, BUT, his diction was atrocious, did not understand half the words to the songs. He is leaving us in Apia so no need to worry.
Adam James has become our staple evening ending; he plays a mean piano and sings OK. His diction is perfect; you understand every word of every song. Adam takes requests and tries not to ruin them; mostly he does a good job. I have discovered Long Island Ice tea, the atrium bar makes it good and potent and for those not in the know, they are on the Happy Hour list, that I have neither seen nor heard officially about, but it does exist. $4 is all it costs me.
