........ have returned home to Singapore safe and sound today - Sunday October 21 - after a wonderful 7 days of complete rest. Yes, we did do a few 'day tours' at Kuala Lumpur, Penang, Phuket, Langkawie etc...... but overall it was a very relaxing holiday.
The Gemini is a small cruise ship, by 'small' I mean the gross tonnes is 19,093 that is comparing it with the Virgo that is 76,800 gross tonnes. There were 550 passengers to start with, but we picked up a few more at KL that came on board for a 5 day cruise, dropping them back at KL yesterday. Photo is of the SuperStar Virgo departing from Singapore at 4.00pm last Sunday (Oct 14) and we left just 2 hours later at 6.00pm.
This photo was taken while both were berthed at the HarbourFront, Singapore, so may give you a better idea of the size differences..........
This is the tug boat getting ready to help the Superstar Gemini depart:
Over the next few days will upload more photos of places we have been and things we have done...........like riding the Elephants in Thailand and taking a tour in a Trishaw in Penang or chasing the monkeys after they stole my camera on Pado Island. yes, we have had a few adventures!!!
