Life Boat Race

Saturday 5th was a beautiful, very hot and sunny day. It was also a fun day. The Deck Departmnent under the Leadership of our Captain Jonhard Joensen organised a life boat race. They lowered 2 of our 6o man lifeboats into the water. We had to disembark the ship down a rope ladder down the side - Very Scary for me!! The kids loved it!!

The Captain then towed the lifeboats out to the marker buoy with the Zodiak power boat and then we raced back to the ship. It was great fun, very tiring for those rowing. Fortunately we were passengers so we got to enjoy the ride and pelt our opposing team with water balloons! Unfortunately however, we were not on the winning Team.
