Well here we are on the 5 days at sea until we reach Rio de Janeiro, a.k.a. the River of January (but you all knew that!). So we've just passed the coasts of Guyana, Surinam, French Guinea (I think!), and now off the Brazil coast...Tomorrow we cross the equator at 8.19am... So it's time to check the water going down the plug hole; clockwise in the Northern Hemisphere, amticlockwise in the south... and it switches at the equator! Oh, and the drowning ceremony as you crosss the equator for the first time in the ceremony of King Neptune...
Today? Up for some gym, breakfast, a show in the Planetarium, some sunbathing, reading, more food and then maybe a pint at 4.30pm in the pub before dinner? A hard life...
Don't know what it is about the ship's PCs, but they won't allow picture uploads, so you might need to wait until Santiago and some more photos.. sorry loyal blog followers! Until next time...
Oh and I hear the Toon lost again... grumble, grumble...!
