AT SEA

2 days out from Ponta Delgada & it was a cards & quoits afternoon.
Cliff & I played Euchre with Mick & Jenny - Yes finally - Mick & I beat Cliff & Jenny.

Then it was Wales-v-Australia in quoits with our welsh friends Richard & Marilyn, Sandy & Pat & Aussie friends Julie & Steve. A good finish to the game - a tie.


Then suddenly "Houston, we have a problem" 
The Captain made an announcement - some of us may have noticed black smoke & that we were no longer moving. We had lost an engine & they were working very hard to get it back on line.
All power & air conditioning was lost throughout the ship - but it didn't worry us as we were on deck having fun. Finally they restored the engine & we were off again.

We sat around enjoying a beautiful sunset
