Another relaxing day spent on the Dawnie. A few more danishes consumed and a little bit of shopping done. Reading and lazing was the order of the day.
Mum and I went to the restaurant for dinner - we found it was a bit of a palava to book into each evening and there were always queues. We shared our table with sisters and a younger couple, all were very nice. Our table was, high. It was more a tall table with tall, heavy stools - quite tricky to get onto and then move yourself in. No-one was a fan of it. If you dropped your napkin, like one of the ladies did, there it stayed. It was a long way down.
The meals were nice but the sizing was small - very small. A couple of the mains were fine but the poor couple next to me had 3 tenny tiny courses, I think they were going to the buffet afterwards! The bread rolls were yummy as usual and the service was ok, although it did take awhile for the others to get a menu. The theme for tonight was The Great Gatsby - lots of people dressed up. There were trails of feathers everywhere.
Mum and I went to a show before dinner, it was meant to be The Velvet Rope (which I had wanted to see) but the main girl singer was unwell so the show was changed. Not sure why they didn't have a understudy. The show ended up being a magician/comedian (he had performed earlier in the cruise) and then the main guy singer sung some songs by himself. It was good but a bit disappointing not to see the show advertised. We did see a show earlier in the cruise that I enjoyed although we were a bit late getting to the theatre so the seats weren't the best, on the side of the stage so you did miss a bit of the show. I still really enjoyed it.
