Day 39 - Downunder 2016 - Fri - 11/04/16 - At Sea - Indian Ocean 2

Today was passport return day and interview with Australian immigration officials. This we did after our breakfast and morning devotional time. From there we did the first mile of walking the deck. Alan gave a very interesting talk on radio telescopes and seeing things that can't be seen optically. A quick lunch followed and we walked another mile before doing a photographic scavenger hunt competition that we ended up winning. This little contest was just another way to get excercise as we scampered all over the ship in search of items to photograph.

Philip Creaser's afternoon lecture was about cultural world heritage sites and it was also interesting. We then finished up our 10,500 step goal after which I backed up the photos on my phone camera. Gala night returned and lobster was one of the main entrees (5 of 6 at our table got that item). Then main stage entertainment was a redo of the musical Droom by the cast performers.

We adjourned to our room with a DVD movie 'Casino Royale'.

While the destination is important, remember to savor the journey.
