A Rolly Polly Sea Day...

Monday September 16. Moderate sea, warm. 28 C.  Day 33 of 37.

The clocks went back for the last time last night. We are now nine hours behind you but a day ahead. Same time now as Melbourne, Australia

We have had the most rocking and rolling day of the whole journey today, it is conducive to being rocked to sleep, continually!

It was indeed a lazy day, which I love and Fellette has adapted to as well. We had a deck walk after breakfast but once again the heat and humidity then drove Fellette inside after the one mile  point.

We went to the cabin and Fellette packed one suitcase, mainly with some items we have purchased and heavy clothes that we needed earlier on in the trip.

After lunch we took in a couple of lectures but bailed out on the third one and retired to the cabin to read and me to write. We have heard some of the lectures earlier and we are quite content with our cabin, books, computer and wide selection of educational matter on the  cabin TV.

We are ready to come home! To us, this wonderful journey is over, but it's time: Home beckons

Tomorrow is the country of Taiwan, the capital city of Taiwan. We have never been here and I am a bit anxious to compare Japan to Taiwan, [which is really China].

I only took two pictures today, one of my much younger wife, on the veranda at 5:30 this morning having our first coffee, the other of the steward bringing the coffee. 

Fellette is quite looking forward to exercise and quilting on next Monday morning and then Choir Practise on Wednesday evening. I am eager to see the progress made on Bligh House and visit CTI. We are both very anxious to check out the garden as well.

I did accomplish something on this trip! I no longer need suspenders to hold my pants up properly. They are packed!

5:25 AM today.
5:30 AM.
