That's not hot...that's stinkin' hot!! (Bon Voyage Steve and Brenda leaving today for England)

Sunset from our balcony in Darwin

We just sailed away from Darwin where we spent the day ashore in the hottest temperatures we’ve experienced so far...but as the old saying goes...it wasn’t the heat....it was the humidity!! The big news of the day is ... Kier found his Moods (cigars). Kier searching for these cigars is somewhat like a dog chasing a car...the fun is in the chase and, like the dog, he doesn’t always know what to do when he "catches" them. He buys 2 or 3 packs, they’re gone within a week, and he inevitably says "I should have bought more". And then we spend the next port of call looking for more cigars. Oh well, it keeps us from buying a bunch of stuff we don’t need !!
　
　
WHAT I LEARNED TODAY: I don’t really understand all of the cruise lines policies. Some of them are just plain foolish. For instance, yesterday I went to the pizza restaurant. The plan was to p/u a pizza and take it back to our cabin where Kier and I would share it. One of wait staff, an "uppity" little fellow, asked me if I wanted a table for one. I told him I was just looking to p/u a pizza to go back to my room. Well, you’d think I told him I wanted him to sever his right arm and box it up for me..."You can’t do that!!" he said rather sternly. "If you want pizza in your room you have to call by phone and order it". Here I thought I was saving someone the trouble of delivery. I wasn’t long figuring out what was going on. They charge $3 for pizza delivery to your room. And that leads me to another policy that doesn’t make sense...you can have unlimited room service at no charge...so what is it that’s so special about this pizza that you have to pay $3 for it to be delivered?? I guess that’s just a couple more things I can add to my list of things that make me go hmmmmm!!
