14th Feb

The sheltered life

Cruise ship passengers have a cosseted existence.  Our every need is catered for.   Pleasant smiling faces surround us ready to do our bidding.

It amazes me to see the lengths the staff go to to make sure we have a good experience.  Our comfort is of paramount importance to these willing workers, who frequently go beyond what is required, with genuine good spirit.

Last night we stayed up beyond midnight and on entering one of the lounges we discovered a diminutive uniformed young lady, sitting at a table with her shoes kicked off, making strings of paper hearts which her male co-worker was festooning around the room. Both were humming away and looked happy and relaxed.  It was Valentine's Day and they were doing their bit to make it memorable.
