Our last day was a sea day and we all took the opportunity to sleep in. No one was up before 9 am and it felt like quite a treat. Trying to stick to my training routine I headed to the gym for a short 16k run on the treadmill. Not so bad when you can watch a movie ( Duplicity) and stare out into the ocean while running. 2 hours and a bit later I was done and ready to spend the rest of the day sunbathing. We found a great spot at the back of the ship overlooking the water to read our books, sleep and strengthen the tan. Slightly burnt it was time to pack and prepare for dinner. We had booked an 8:15 dinner reservation so our suitcases needed to be packed and ready for pick-up before we headed for dinner. It was with mixed feeling we packed those bags.
Dinner tonight was with our favorite 2 waiters and they picked up teasing Nicole right were they left off two evenings earlier. Pepper shakers disappeared and she got a special dessert. By the end of the evening I think she had 3 desserts. A chocolate note written on the first plate said "special desert". Yes this is how it was spelt. An apple pie with no vanilla sauce, followed by a mud pie. Each delicious and she enjoyed them all as the rest of us howled with laughter. I am sure the waiters will never forget our table of six!!
However the party ended there, as we headed back to our rooms and were all asleep by 10:30. Funny how tired you can getting just sitting in the sun.
Up at 6:30 it was time to head home. A whole day of travelling would get us home at 9:45.
