Life on board RMS

We are now on the third day of our five day voyage to Cape Town. We thought we would have plenty of time to relax, read and generally chill out but life on board the RMS is action packed.

There are morning deck games of deck cricket, quoits or shuffleboard; afternoon quizzes; documentaries on the islands and countries the RMS calls at;

cocktail parties hosted by the captain;

a visit to the bridge;

and not to mention the 5 meals per day: cooked breakfast; elevensies with beef tea; 3 course lunch; afternoon tea of sandwiches with crust cut of, biscuits and cake; and finally a formal 7 course dinner where ties and jackets must be worn.
