Today I passed in a quiz called "Which is Which" in which a familiar thing must be matched up with one of two meanings. The were 20 questions and imagine my surprise to find my name listed as winner. The food continues very good, and the service and attention given everywhere on board is excellent.
We take salt water baths rinsing off with fresh water from a small tub. It is most invigorating and almost as good as a swim in the ocean. Met a very interesting person* who had photos of Leeds castle in Maidstone. She lives in one of the lodges and has charge of the Castle while her husband is the caterer. She has been in the Bahamas at the residence there of her employer and had a vast fund of interesting experiences. She invited us to visit her and go through Leeds castle. It is one of three castles left in England with the original water moat + draw bridge.
