Wednesday 24th April 2019
Heading north today, sailing distance 544 nm to Oslo.
Rather overcast start today with a stiff breeze, looks like the sky may be brightening. Sadly though the cloud never cleared.
Our favourite spot at the back of the buffet,
usually quieter and with views over the sea
A quiet sea day spent at our first MSC quiz (no win though a good effort), morning coffee, followed by a search for a nice comfortable lounge (no luck here either) and an afternoon snack in the Sports and Bowling Bar, burger and onion rings accompanied by the rattle and crash of the bowling topped off with youthful tantrums!
Skipped the pleasure of meeting Captain Stefano Aiello for cocktails and the delights of dressing up for a “Gala Evening”.
So tonight it’s off to the Platinum Theatre for some entertainment by the MSC Preziosa International Dancers and Artists, “Ghostbusters”.
As a surprise opening to the show the Captain and the Chief Officers had their introduction to the passengers, each nationality had their own welcome from the Captain in their own language, all to much applause.
Then it was the show, a real eclectic mix of singing, dancing, an aerial act, a contortionist, a couple of acrobatic groups and a disappearing act, all very good but all seemed a bit unusual as a cruise line show.
A quick supper before off to bed ready for tomorrow in Oslo.
