En route to the Lifou Caves 

Enjoy a few snaps from our most recent trip to Lifou!

S00o0o0o what updates can I give, aside from the obvious coralation between how good the anecdotes are and my alcohol intake? This week has been one of my best ones, out of work. In work, not. Not that that means it's been bad, cause I love my job so anything less than 90% is a bad week!

Last week the accomdation team hosted a party (in the laundry room on deck 1!) whih was a great crack, feed booze, free pizza, drinking games and decorations to mke some deecent headgear out of.
Then this week was back-t-back celebrations with it being Indonisian and Indian indepence day. (not that I ever need an xcuse to hit up Kilo staircase)  It would be disrepectful to not enjoy a bevvie, a dance, a drink (a 3am crew mess, crowdsurf, a all off a chair which i keep being reminded of too, and a pair of lost shoes)  with my fellow crew members! Seeing Oli trying to blend in on the dance floor with his "dancing" was a personal highlight.



In work, passangers this week have been a n n o y i n g, just a bit rude as well (not all, had some real sweet kids who have offered me to stay with them in tassie!). So this geeza has this promo card which allows him 3 free actitives with us. The advertised ones we can't provide as we're by far the busiest Edge team and it's physically impossible, we offer more expensive and unique ones as a substitue. I tell matey boy- call him Bruce- that is is the situation and thanks for the understanding yaddayaddayadda. Next day he comes over and asks again- I'm liken mattteeee- swear I met you yesterday but whatever and I give him the shpeil again. He then points at me and is like NO. NO. NO. (GEEZA WHAT. DO YOU KNOW WHO YOU'RE TALKING TO??) THESE ARE THE ACTIVITES I WANT AND THEYRE THE ONES IM GETTING. So I calmly and politely explain the reasons why we can no longer provide those experiences and it's in our T&C'sthat we can substitute if unable to provide- he calls me a liar but I'm smart so it's like "I'm sorry youre upset sir, however please read between these brackets just here. Thanks :) :) :) ) So he replies THIS IS UNACCEDPTABLE IM GOING TO COMPLAIN TO THE CAPTAIN. Okay mate haha cause Alan aint got anything better to do that deal with you. "Okay sir, you might have more luck complaining to reception but my name is Becca :) :) :) :)



Days off this week haven't been too bad, apart from missing my weekly pizza TWICE IN A ROW from Dominoes. We've hit some quite rough weather this cruise with Decks 14&15 completely closed leaving us with nothing to do other than enjoying the DJ, eating ice cream and doing some safety checks. Lifou last week was spot on, me Emily and Jess who work in the shops went to some caves and had the whole place to ourselves that was pretty rad. I'll try get some videos for you (nobody ever has internet so chasing up other peoples stuff takes ages). Heading there again tomrorow for some more shananagans.



This week I have been CRAVING eggy bread. Not a big demand by anyones means, and I've been trying to think of a way I can get some without breaking quarentine or trespassing into the galley...so they only reasonable solution would be to sleep with the Captain, which is something I would consider for that fried goodness. Imagine, youre in bed and then 4am -phone rings- and it's the captain demanding Eggy Bread- you can't exactly tell him to do one, can ya? HOWEVER upon discussing this with one of my mates from the Bridge it turns out that all I need to do is to smooth talk them and they can order room service to the Bridge. But I will keep you posted on the Eggy Bread Sega.
