Alive and kicking

Nice boat, good food but late leaving Barcelona after 2 week refit so sailing direct to Port Said missing Malta and Alexandria. Consequence 4 days+ at sea and it's been rough - force 8/9 with a big swell on starboard quarter. Not sick but walking drunkenly. Could of course be all the wine!
Cabin upgraded to Junior suite, champagne on ice on arrival + big fruit bowl. Cut Fruit and canapes each day. Trip top Alex on Sat Canal Sat night/Sun then back on Schedule.
All well and getting to gym each day. Bright and sunny today - first time though.
Looking forward to comments. will upload a longer detailed later but connection Not great at pres.

I heard about your trip from W and thought of sending you my wishes of a great time, but also thought you wouldn't be in the blogging world... anyway, thank you for the good luck wishes and have my hopes of a fun and relaxing trip.
Mrs Millard mk 3 - or is it 2? ( counting only W senior!) aka L

Wife 2 never wanted to be Millard - wife 3 loves it.
You didn't miss much in Malta - it suffers from far too much British influence. Haven't been to Alexandria but I have a friend here in Boulder who comes from there and I would love to go.
Keep up with the gymn - you don't need four meals a day either!
Have a great time!
and thanks for your good wishes wrm

A meal every 4/5 hours, to include protein!
