Dalmatian Coast cruising without a dog in sight

Remember that when the next word starts with a vowel, you carry the last consonant across. So maybe it was more like 'Moe tet Chandon'?

Except Moët is the Dutch word in a French name - so it is a hard t sound for that reason (so Mo-wett) and not a hard t because if the following vowel (being the French language rule).

Yes, and the way it was pronounced sounded much better than just mo-wett although I think I’ve said it as mow-et. It sounded like mow-et a Chandon. The a sounded quite musical so said with a lilt almost.

How was the DOH-ADL flight? I hope QR J redeemed itself?

How was the DOH-ADL flight? I hope QR J redeemed itself?

The DOH flight to Adelaide was good. We departed early. J cabin 2/3 full. The CSM was extremely proactive, busy and very friendly. He worked hard as did his crew. Received our amenities kits and PJ’s. Different style this time. I received S and boy, it sure was. MrP M and fitted snugly. As opposed to the offering on the way over. I didn’t eat much as we’d eaten a sandwich in the lounge (Ramadan) but alcohol was very freely available onboard even before take off. Flight was quite turbulent and seat belt sign on quite a lot. In the Al Mourjan lounge the reflection pool was empty and it looked awful. Maya be a Ramadan thing? We realised that the lounge upstairs was offering a better meal but was too late by then.

This was the first overseas trip where I’d not gained much weight. We had done a lot of walking every day. The food - we only tended to have 2 meals a day. The food on the cruise was good but not to our taste and we don’t have a four course meal at lunch and we don’t enjoy them. Also, most women found that their ankles were really swelling. I can only think that the food was too salty. Normally my ankles reduce overnight but this trip they stayed swollen until this week.
