This epic journey continues well as we steam south towards Namibia and into the first really hot weather. Of course, this is just the beginning. There is little to write about right now. It goes without saying that the ship is magnificent, food and service tremendous. A couple of substantial delays have been negated by ample recovery time during the sea days. I have just received my documentation for an African Safari trip along the Garden route. I am going to have to put aside my dislike of early mornings. Day 1 entails meeting on deck 2 at 06.20hrs…04.20 BST. The rare opportunity to make this trip and see so much makes this three day excursion very well worth any early morning inconvenience.
I am slightly annoyed about one thing, however. The passengers are listed with their nationality at the front of the booklet. Apparently, I am American!
More news later on.
All the best, David.
