Arrived

Flight was on time and arrived on schedule. We were put on a bus by the aircraft and whisked straight to the ship. On boarding we we given our boarding cards and then made our way to our suite.

Our cases were to follow, so we popped out for a look around the ship, stopping for a drink, it's all inclusive, and a sit in the sun. On the way back to our cabin, we happened upon the buffet restaurant, so had a quick snack. I had a serve yourself beer too. It's only fosters but it's cold and wet. That was a pint and a half and I'd only been on board 90 minutes!

Back in the cabin it became apparent that we have the neighbours from he'll in the next cabin. Not one but two screaming kids, who when they are not screaming, are running up and down. What not. Already having black thoughts of "child overboard". Hoping they are only here for the week and not a fortnight.

Emergency muster drill due any time now.

We've been up 19 hours, so I expect sleep will soon follow.

So ends Day 1.
