Tonight we had a fantastic Polynesian show, including songs, hula, and even a chant to send us on our safe journey to Tahiti. Six more ocean days to go until we reach Nuka Hiva
John’s 72nd birthday was celebrated yesterday at sea on the way to the Canary Islands. We had a lovely breakfast in the dining room, where the waiters sang Happy Birthday in Indonesian! Upon returning to our stateroom, we were surprised by a visit from room service with a birthday cupcake and note from the Captain. In the evening we ate at the Pinnacle Grill with friends and John had a special birthday cake. While we were eating , our room stewards decorated the cabin for another birthday surprise!
Tonga is the smallest kingdom in the world. It’s home to about 100,000 people and unfortunately , it suffered a tsunami which destroyed two islands in the kingdom. I enjoyed a drive around the island, where I saw numerous blowholes.
So nice! Enjoy!
