So it's Christmas Eve at last. Here we are in Curacao in a beautiful berth with crystal clear Caribbean waters around us where we can swim and snorkel right off the quayside.
Yet everyday we get messages from home about the white Christmas in Scotland and we wish we were at home. Our first Christmas away from home and we miss all the snow.
So we are making the best of it.
We had a Brits Christmas party last night with 26 people in our cabin, mince pies and games, finally watching some Wallace and Grommit to finish the evening.
We have our main Christmas meal this evening, after watching Polar Express in the Theatre. I am introducing one of our Christmas traditions to the ships company. This evening we have a carol service.
Tomorrow we have a huge brunch then a church service before open cabins and in the evening a BBQ up on deck. I am sure we will fit in a festive swim at some point.
So we wish you all a fantastic Christmas time and a great New Year. We will be in touch again soon.
