We stayed all the way in our cabins until it was time for DINNER! We had the choice of having our meals at Bella Vista – Western, Pavillion Room – Chinese and Mediterranean Buffet – International. Moderate charges apply for the other a la carte restaurants on the cruise. Finally come to an agreement to have western food at Bella Vista, which starts serving dinner from 6 PM. There is a dress code for Bella Vista, which explains why we were still wearing our pants and shoes – smart causal (no shorts, swimwear, slippers, etc. allowed).<\/p>\n

Finally found Bella Vista! We got slightly lost initially.<\/p>\n

Bread served at every table. We finished all the bread.<\/p>\n

Each of us gets to choose our own appetitzer, main course and dessert – we tried to order different items.<\/p>\n

Tour around the cruise after our heavy dinner.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The menus for all the restaurants are displayed on the notice board at level 7.<\/p>\n

We were back to the Grand Plazza once again.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

We signed up for our snorkeling trip at the reception counter. Mummy & WL were not keen on snorkeling, hence they signed up for the trip to Laguna Pulau Redang Resort.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Went back to our cabins to take a short break before proceeding to The Lido at 20:30 PM for the Comedy & Juggling Show by Terry Parade<\/em>. No photography allowed during the show, hence no photos. We returned to our cabins again after the show until we felt too bored. Took a night tour around the cruise.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

23:30 PM Mediterranean Buffet – Supper<\/strong><\/p>\n

Soon it was time for SUPPER. There wasn’t any choice where to have supper as the Mediterranean Buffet restaurant is the only place serving.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Food didn’t look and taste fantastic – disappointing.<\/p>\n

We retired to our cabins right after supper. Looking forward to the snorkeling trip.<\/p>\n
