Valentine's Day and Melbourne





We celebrated Valentine's Day at sea. Mike and I actually exchanged gifts, which is unusual for us. I gave him a nice long sleeve shirt and he gave me a gorgeous Swarovski Crystal Bracelet. A cuff about 3 inches wide. It was the hit of the evening. We dined in Prime 7, the new steak house onboard and it was delicious, as always. Before dinner they had dancing in the theater and gave all the ladies a red rose.
Feb 15, we arrived in Melbourne. We took the shuttle bus into town and then took the tram to the Queen Victoria Market. A huge swap meet with lots of "stuff". We bought some small trinkets and headed back to the ship to have lunch with Shirley's sister and her two daughters. It was lots of fun. In the evening we ate dinner with the General Manager and his wife and then went to the Beatles Show put on by the singers and the band. They were really great.
Today we are at sea and it is a beautiful day. Tomorrow we will be in Adelaide, Australia.
