Crown Princess Postcard #13 – Sea Day 6 (Replacing Busselton, Australia)

Despite the Captain telling us last night that he intended to arrive 1 hour earlier than planned, the weather had other ideas. The wind was strong enough to delay our arrival rather than improve it. We arrived at our tendering position at just after 9:00 and it was just after 9:30 that the Captain announced that due to sea conditions it was unsafe to commence tendering so it would not be operating today, as the unseasonable weather was forecasted to continue all day, unfortunately Busselton would not happen.

Instead, we would continue on to our next stop which is Fremantle. With nothing other than lunch to break our day up, I got down to reading some more of my book. A revised version of Princess Patter was delivered to our cabin around lunch time so someone had been busy in the morning. On the way back from lunch we spotted some new commemorative plaques on the wall on the central staircase on deck 7. They didn’t take long to put up.

The sun graced our balcony and we enjoyed a few hours sat out there after lunch.

Sunny but still very windy

Late afternoon we did six laps of the prom deck which according to the notice is 2.8 laps is equal to 1 mile. Our evening drill then kicked in with dinner and an early night.

We are both still struggling with adapting to the timezones at the moment. Both waking up early and feeling very tired around 9:00pm.

  1. Tying your bedtime to jet lag is really funny. I always feel tired around 9:00 pm, no matter where I am. It’s called getting old. Welcome to the club. 🤪
