Well I'm back and not such a good cruise this time.
First 6 days were OK, but then I came down with a very
bad dose of gastro. Had trouble eating and drinking and
became severely dehydrated. So much so, that I had to be
put on a saline drip. Medical bill was $680. Also missed 3
of my shore tours, including East Timor, where I was hoping
to get lots of coins. Spent 4 days quarantined in my cabin.
Spent a couple more days recovering and came good by the
last day. Spent some time in Singapore, so we got to see some
goods sights there. Now I have to make a claim on the travel
insurance. Don't leave home without it!
