A few of our group are feeling a bit seasick. Emma and Mark were a feeling green this morning,
and Lilly had to come out of Kids Club early because she was crook.
Liz has been in bed most of the afternoon.
Dad and I spent the afternoon at the winetasting.
Here's a shot of the waves breaking over the bow as we head into 30 to 40 knot winds!
We are so glad that my Dad, Bruce, is travelling with us.
The kids love him, and he really enjoys them too.
Plus, with an extra adult, it's a bit less intense for us as parents.
Lilly's having fun here with Bruce at dinner 🙂
Sunset over the Glasshouse Mountains – a nice backdrop for a couple of cool Coronas.
You know the cruise has well and truly started when you sail under the Gateway bridge and
Brisbane slowly recedes behind you.
We’re having a great time – although the sea was really rough last night.
I’ve got heaps of photos, but can’t seem to upload them here.
I’ll persevere and try and get them up later today.
There’s too much good food!
Well we're off! When the horn blows and the ship starts moving, it's a wonderful feeling. Everyone is very excited. The computers on the ship aren't working yet. So I sent this with my phone. Will write more later. Neil.
Harrison’s cast came off today.
After checking out a fresh X-Ray, the orthopedic surgeon reckons his arm is healing really well. We’re all very relieved.
The cast was on for four months, and Harrison didn’t complain at all.
What an amazing young man.
He is still on the pamidronate therapy to speed up his bone growth. He’ll need to be on that for another six months at least.
Now, repeat after me – “I will never jump off swings again…”.
Watch this space!
We’re taking another “Week Fantastique” aboard Pacific Star starting this Saturday.
I’ll try to post regular updates here each day, where possible.
If you want to keep an eye on us, please come back heare and read the updates, or go to http://ShipWatcher.com and have a look at the Pacific Star webcam.
