nerja, malaga, spain
breakfast as usual. will miss the pancakes!!! :( took a tour to the caves of nerja. thought that d'ambrosio would come with us but he went with the other tour bus. wanted a pic with him! the caves were good! its completely natural and discovered by 5 boys. there are many staglamites and stalatides(how to spell???) which is supposed to grow 1cm every 150 years so they claim that the cave is millions of years old. its massive! went to the town to buy some food stuff and a magnet. mine! i buy a souvenir from each place as a momento. slept during the trip back to the boat. i always seem to sleep in the bus. missed all the nice scenery! back at the boat, went for sot aerobics again. dressed up cos that night is gala night again. took pics with the waiters! subagiyo and the other guy who serves bread. saw a boring opera show. went for the midnight bufftet at deck 14. it was amazing! lots of decoration and food, all beautifully made. cakes were decorated and shaped into animals like cats, dogs and stars. the deco was awesome! but the food looks better then it tastes, though its a lot of work! finally saw sushi and sashimi there! took pic with the 'singaporean'guy. we saw him on the first day and he asked where we were from. after that, whenever he sees us, he will always say 'singapore!' haha!

last full day here! thought that it will never come. oh well. will miss the people here and the ship! talked to sudiarta again for breakfast. will miss him! mum didn't allow me to talk to him much. :( went for aerobics and took a pic with the aerobics teacher. saw a disappointing cooking demonstration cos we couldn't understand what it was about and they wasted a lot of time letting people try the food. we were there for an hour and all the guest chef did was to use liquid nitrogen to make 5 simple deserts. boat was rocking\ quite badly cos of the rough sea. first time! parents didn't feel well. last dinner at red velvet! ate a lot cos i had an appetite but my parents didn't. talked a lot to our african friends. said our last goodbye to the waiters at red velvet. watched a michael jackson tribute. one guy could impersonate him perfectly! good show! the animation crew also came out and did a performance. they are the ones who teach us dancing, aerobics and are in charge of on board activities. went to see some talent show and danced a bit.

last day!!! time to leave! didn't manage to get a photo with any of the animation crew except my aerobics teacher and my dance/art teacher. don't even know their names! saw sudiarta at breakfast. gave him my number but forgot the +65 in front. gave my address but forgot the postal code. and gave my email. hope he emails! feel so bad leaving out all these details and didn't get his. will miss him so much!!!!!! packed and met at the casino(its the meeting point so i'm allowed in!) met d'ambrosio to take a pic! then left the boat! :( waited a long time for our transport to arrive but it didn't cos the agent in singapore forgot to sent an email to the people in rome for the transport. :( so took a cab to the airport which was not as nice as singapore's. then flew back to dubai and then to singapore, arriving at 2pm singapore time. oh well, that's all for our holiday!
