Day 95


Day 95 – Papeete to Pago Pago – Saturday 18/8/12

Weather – Fine, and Sunny. 24C – 25C
Sunrise – 6.32am
Sunset – 6.22pm
Time difference - minus 20 hours ex Sydney

At 6.10am this morning Sun Princess passed 7 miles south of Maupiha Island in the Iles Sous Le Vent. During the course of the day we steered a west-north-westerly course. At 8.10am we passed 17 miles south of Mannuae Island and at midnight we were 164 miles north of Aitutaki Island in the Cook Islands, which has been used for the US reality show Survivor .

Sea Day enroute to American Samoa, and the port of Pago Pago, which we are told is pronounced Pango Pango. Simply stunning weather continues to bless our holiday, and today would be exactly as you would ask..just like yesterday...and forecast for tomorrow...Warm, sunny, calm seas, with a light breeze at our backs :)

Shuffleboard rematch today, it was a long drawn out affair with neither side giving an inch, we had only one game, and that lasted 90 minutes, such was the tussle, and todays victors were..........The Ladies.

Bob was kind enough to show me the game of Crib today. It was quite an interesting game, so I will get into that when we get home.

Nothing of note to interest us in the entertainment space again tonight, which is becoming a regular thing, as the entertainment offerings are becoming rather thin on talent, or maybe we are getting harder to please as the cruise enters the last 10 days :)
