APR. 20th -- SUEZ CANAL TRANSIT, DAY 1

Day #106 of our World Cruise.

We are en route to Ashdod, Israel and will be going through the Suez Canal.  We will actually be entering and going through tomorrow...Easter Sunday.
We get up about 9:00 AM and feel fabulous.  Our big adventure in Egypt was successful, we saw everything we wanted and more and got back to the ship safe & sound.  We now have two quiet days on the ship as we travel through the Suez Canal.

We head down to the Navigator Lounge for coffee and a visit with fellow passengers...what they did, what they saw, still coughing?...etc.  From there we go to lunch at the Compass Rose and have a light lunch.
The afternoon is spent on the computer...thank goodness the internet is co-operating.  I update the Blog with April 18th & 19th in Eygpt.  I wanted to record it while everything is still fresh in my mind.  I finish up at about 5:00 PM.
We change and go to Galileo Lounge as Nikolai is playing his guitar & he is a favourite of ours.  We have a glass of white wine and talk about our Egypt adventure.
While we are sitting there I looked outside and saw the most beautiful sunset.  Camera in hand, I dashed outside and caught it.

Mickey & Richard come in and join us for a drink before they go to Prime 7 for dinner.  We talked about our adventures and theirs, over the past couple of days.

After they leave & Nikolai is finished his set, Barry & I head downstairs to Compass Rose.  They have Chilean Sea Bass tonight...I am all over that!
Then, back to our cabin.
We find a chocolate Easter bunny on our bed...so cute.

...and we will.
We watched a movie ... "Aquaman" ....we only see half of it. We'll watch the rest tomorrow.
Early night.
