It was very beezy walking early this morning with 60+ km/h headwinds, but there was still a sizable crowd on deck due to the hour we gained last night. There were chocolate croissants at breakfast. Debbie showed no improvement overnight, so when she went back to the Doctor's this morning he had her get another IV dose of antbiotics ($278). This time he told her to keep taking ibuprofen in addition to expectorant while waiting for the antibiotics to kick in. Tomorrow morning we are supposed to go to Luxor, and there is some concern that we will not be able to make the trip. We have another appointment with the Doctor and his staff at 8am and expect to be loading a bus by 9 to 10am.
We saw a very large pod of dolphins off our balcony this morning. They were small brown dolphins, but were not jumping like some we have seen. The seas have been a little rougher today and the air a little clearer. There was a lobster BBQ for lunch on the Pool Deck today, but we went to Compass Rose. Debbie had her best dessert of the cruise, a chocolate creme brulee.
Roger Condon, the tour director, mentioned on Voyager Today that this was his last contract with Regent. Jamie, who hosts Voyager Today, said they would discuss this on a later show. They say that we are taking 20 buses to Luxor tomorrow and staying in 4 different hotels. Also, there are 3 different touring programs depending on if you have been before and are seeing different things this time, or if you prefer less walking. It must be a logistical nightmare. We hope for a repeat of our Agra experience and we will be very pleased.
In the evening right before dinner, Debbie took her temperature and it was normal. Hopefully, it will stay that way overnight. Tonight is Formal. At 6:15pm, we went to the Seven Seas Society Cocktail Party. The Captain asked Clay why he had not come to the bridge yet. Clay told him he was saving it for a special visit. Captain Dag told him to come during the Suez Canal, that he could get some good pictures.
We received World Cruise gifts in our cabin this evening. They were some kind of small leather portfolio we think. We also had special turn-down candies.
Tomorrow, we should be off to Luxor, so it will be two days before we post again. Sorry for the suspense, but someone has to go off and have all the fun and it might as well be us.
