We were somewhat surprised to wake up at 9am, lucky it's a sea day. We go straight to breakfast in the dining room and even though we are at a table for 2 there is an English couple at the next table with whom we have some conversation. It's amazing the number of people on this ship that have done this cruise before, but it works well for us because we can ask the what we should see and do on the different islands.

Glenn even had a lugg...

We are going to Green Gecko this morning for a visit. It's a NGO ( non government organization) run by an Aussie lady Tania Palmer and her Cambodian husband Rem Poum. It started in 2005 with Tania returning to Cambodia to do what she could to help the street kids. Through ...
