Voyage 23 - Cape Town - Maritime Memories

[happy daze john in oz]

Vernon, this is supposed to be a happy time of year, seeing those Lavender ladies in the photos almost has me crying in my beer.

[Doc Vernon]

Well John
Take time in thought mate,and possibly you can find your way to do one of those lovely Cruises!
Wish I could!
Oh Dear where do I get all that Money??????
Help!!! Anyone!! LOL!
Cheers

In the holiday section of this weeks Sunday Express, amongst the adverts for all the major cruise lines, there were two adverts for voyages on cargo ships. Cannot recall the lines nor the runs that were on offer but a 30 day round trip involving Atlantic crossings cost in the region of £2500, which seems pretty reasonable to me.

Hi Vernon,
Looks good,
BUT
it does visit Five mozzy ports which just look like Bolton on a sunny day, and shock horror....visit the Hassan II Mosque, the second largest mosque ......
I am surrounded by them , they give me nightmares.

If it called at St Helena, and Ascension it would be different, also is it a Greek ? then when you see the Captain sat in a lifeboat at 3am, it is then time to panic.
Sorry I don't think I will buy that one. I prefer the South Pacific Islands, the people are so friendly and happy.
Thanks for thinking of me
Cheers
Brian.

I think that I would enjoy that trip Capt
Sounds interesting to me,but as the saying goes mate,One Mans Meat is another Mans Poison!
It goes to the Canary Islands as well,and there are lots of other places I know I would enjoy!
Anyway as said in previous post where do i get the Moolah!!Lol
Cheers
