day 91, April 13, Civitavecchia, Italy, Suez videos 3

Thanks Ashley and Cliff for your comments. They make doing the write-ups worthwhile!

We arrive in Italy this morning and will spend some time in the town of Civitavecchia. We have been to Rome before and are a bit tired of big cities (plus it is an hour away) so will not be "touring" there.

We are getting excited to see everyone! Mom has gone through our 2 suitcases of souvenirs for everyone and started organizing it. At least they don't have to be wrapped up in Christmas paper! She did think of a poem or two, like "We hope these gifts don't fail ya, Cause we bought them in Australia". Shakespeare would be proud!

We have been playing Trivia a lot and have a pretty good team of 6 (2 from Scotland and 2 from NY). Altogether we have won 3 times. The prize is a little ticket which can be turned in for prizes.

Yesterday, a helicopter flew by the window as we were sitting in the Churchill Lounge. It was from a Greek warship as we passed by Cyprus or Crete.

More Canadians on board  than at the beginning, most of the Australians have left, and more British got on at Dubai.

 Can't wait to start packing up ... ugh!
