Slept thru until 8 am, which was really an hour longer, since we changed our clocks once again. We fell back another hour. I was not feeling well as my throat was sore and I was coughing some. Mark went to Deck 14 Lido and had breakfast and then brought me some food back. Went back to sleep. Watched some tv. Mark went to the astronomy lecture. By then, I had showered and dressed. We walked down to the dining room for lunch We shared our table with an Aussie couple from Melbourne as well as a 3-generation group of ladies who were also from Sydney. After lunch, we came back to the room and had a nap. Woke up in time to walk down to the atrium for our Ryder Cup challenge. It was a tough one today. Lots of fun as we watched the other participants. Headed back to our room. Mark showered and we got dressed for dinner. This was another dressy night. Greg and Maxine did not join us for dinner. We had a lovely dinner with Ian & Beverly. Then we headed back to our cabin and changed into our shorts and headed up to Deck 12 for the Movie Under the Stars. Tonight was the movie, The Old Man & the Gun. Did not care for it. Watched it thru the end and then headed back to our cabin. I started creating this blog, but we decided to check out the show in the Princess Theater. It was the last performance of all the singers and dancers who have performed together for the past 9 months. We saw some lights off the ship and walked out to see lights on shore, but a good distance away from us. There was quite the breeze and we can feel a bit of motion side to side. The seas have been flat all day. We did see plenty of freighters and tankers on the Malacca Sea. It's after 10 and we are heading to bed shortly. Thanks for today's messages. Great to hear from you as we continue our next leg of this cruise to Muscat.

About:
We are both computer folks that were live aboard cruisers back in the 90s. We settled in Jacksonville Florida after escaping the great white north and cruising the Bahamas, T&C, DR and points south down to Trinidad. [...]
Extra: Charabia is a French slang word for nonsense or gibberish. It derives from Arabic "sharab" which means alcohol.When you drink (too much) alcohol, you start talking Charabia. The original owners named her and Mark liked the name so it stuck.
