Christmas on the Ship



The decorations on this ship are so lovely. Trees are everywhere and all the light fixtures have lovely mauve ribbons around them. The garlands hung everywhere creating a really festive atmosphere. 

The first thing we saw this morning was this beautiful table with a gingerbread village. The table was filled with at least a dozen different kinds of cookies, nuts and dried fruits. You would have been amazed to see how quickly the good sweets disappeared and just as quickly how the plates got refilled.

Jim did a photo tour this morning so we could send you some images. 

Feels very strange to be away from familiar surroundings for this special holiday time. But it also feels good to have a lovely place to be.
