Captain's Lunch
Today we were invited to attended the Captain's Most Travelled Passenger Luncheon which is held for the top 40 passengers on each cruise. The menu was great and tasted wonderful. Here is a photo of the menu and a photo of us with Captain Andrea Poggi.
Thunder and Lightning
Thunder, lightning, and rain welcomed us this morning. The sea isn’t too rough, just some minor rocking and rolling. But, it appears that we will probably have thunderstorms throughout the day.
Our current position has us between Nengonengo Island and Hereheretue Island on our course toward Papeete, Tahiti in the Society Islands. We are 378 miles away from Papeete; 2420 miles from Auckland, and 3557 miles from Sydney.
Yesterday, we made the decision to do the Bridge Climb on our first day in Sydney. Hopefully, my new knee will do just fine during the climb and the weather will clear.

Formal Night--Delayed Posting
This is a late entry into the blog. Between laptop computer problems and satellite connection issues we hadn’t gotten around to posting something from our second formal night. The second formal night at sea was February 4, 2011. The food was great and the service so far on the cruise has been truly wonderful. Here is a photo of our waiters in the Club Restaurant. They are (left to right), Aleksandar Grujk, Junior Waiter from Nis, Serbia. He has been with Princess Cruises for one year. Our Waiter is Srdjan Srzentic from Bar, Montenegro. Srdjan has been with Princess for four years. We really appreciate all that they do for us each day.
To our surprise, we were lucky enough to be the 2nd Most Traveled Passengers onboard the World Cruise. Here is a photo showing Captain Andrea Poggi and the Captain’s Circle Hostess Sandy presenting us the Most Traveled Award and another photo showing the actual award itself.
During the evening, the Executive Chef Antonio Cortese and the Maitre D’Hotel Francisco Patricio came by our table to see how the evening was going. Both of these gentlemen do an excellent job taking care of all our dining needs.
