Well, apart from a few squabbles about seating on the tour bus it’s been a very successful two days here in St. Petersburg. Apparently there was a bit of handbag slapping between two ladies who both wanted to sit in the same seat…………and the sad thing was they were friends, travelling together and in the end the staff had to put them on seperate buses. That aside all the guests seemed to have a great time ashore and they will, I know, be extremely happy that we get an extra hour tonight with the clocks going back one hour.
Heidi and I spent the day trying to relax a little and even sat outside for 40 minutes before my phone rang and that was the end of that. I had to go and make an announcement because we had a huge barge moored next to us bringing on fuel and we needed to make sure nobody was on that side of the ship smoking. So, I went and made the announcement and then…………well………I sat down to answer one of 76 e mails in my inbox thingy and two hours later I was still there…………….bugger.
