We have had two very nice days at sea with mostly calm conditions.  We seem to have finally adjusted to the time zone change and have been getting a good nights sleep, finally!  We played some games (Tom won the croquet competition and Noel won the "Top Toss") we also placed in the trivia competition the last three days mostly due to acquiring some good team members!  We attended a cooking class  for some African dishes and a wine tasting.  The weather is quite warm and humid so we have been spending a lot of time indoors.  Today we will be in Nosy Be, Madagascar, but only for about four hours so we will probably just take the tender ashore and have a look around.

The bartenders have all learned how Tom likes his martini

Shaken, not stirred
