A CRUISE COMPENDIUM (Part One)
Memories in Memes.
So now the cruise is over! It's Blogging time again.
Eleven days gone like a flash! Only memories remain.
THAT'S MY WORLD
We travelled down to Circular Quay on a bright and sunny day,
Seeing 'our' ship in the harbour; dragging luggage along the way.
SHADOW SHOT SUNDAY
Relaxation seemed in order, under the shady trees,
Where people came to take a look at 'The Rhapsody of the Seas'
BLUE MONDAY
It was a blue, blue day on the Harbour and the ship posed gracefully
Trying to out-do the Opera House with visual poetry!
RUBY TUESDAY
Once on board my blogging-eye swivvled in my head!
What better than a handy buoy, to add a touch of 'red'.
WEEKEND IN BLACK AND WHITE
And how's this for a monochrome? The Opera House again.
Seen from one of the lounges, through a window pane.
More gold, I suppose, than yellow, but a welcome sign for many.
As for drink and the Bryants.... we hardly sampled any!
We sailed away at sunset; here are the dying rays.
Tomorrow would be the very first of many pleasant days.
Sunrise outside Newcastle, a very strange port of call,
Because we live in Newcastle and so we know it all!
ABC WEDNESDAY
letter 'L'
In the evening we sailed away, leaving the Lighthouse behind,
And the family came to wave us off, which we thought very kind.
Malcolm had his birthday at sea! Here he's congratulated
By the friendly waiters, who so very pleasantly 'waited'.
Watch this space for Instalment Two of the story of our cruise.
(It's so much more relaxing than listening to the news!)
