Today is our last full sea day of our cruise. We are en route from Malta to Athens in Greece and will arrive there at 07:00 in the morning. Like most sea days today was a chance to relax and recover from the previous day’s touring. At 11:15 today we were scheduled to undertake a tour of the bridge. Opportunities to visit the bridge and the engine control room are extremely limited and we were lucky to be offered both. So at 11:15 we underwent the security procedures and were escorted to the navigation bridge where one of the officers gave us a detailed run down of the procedures and controls used to take the ship from one port to the next, and to dock the ship once in port.
Then it was time for lunch again and then our standard procedure for sea days - John and I go for a 2 mile walk on the treadmill, and then the girls join us for a nice soak in the whirlpool hot tubs. This is then followed by some more relaxation on a beach lounge and afternoon drinks (Blue Moon beers and Singapore Slings).
All this rest should prepare us for the strenuous climb up to the Acropolis and the Parthenon in Athens tomorrow.
Finally, this is our little home away from home, cabin 2183.
