Andrew is the first one of us to have his birthday while we are away. He had a great day with lots of cards I had been hiding away, Facebook messages, phone calls and emails. Below he is opening his gifts-which of course he picked and ordered on Amazon months ago-lol, a Leatherman knife and a Maglite torch. |

As a crew member, on our birthday we receive some cookies and our Mariners annual pay of $2 (seriously!)-paid by way of a voucher for the cafe. They are secretly dropped at our cabin door. |

I made Andrew brownies for afternoon tea and we stuck candles in them, even though we are not allowed to light candles on the ship. Jess and I sang Happy Birthday and pretended to blow the candles out anyway! We headed off to Aberdeen, the "tourist" area of Freetown for a family dinner at a nice "beachside" restaurant called Alex's. It only took us one hour and 40 minutes to get there After getting lost and asking many confused locals where to go we finally made it and had an hour to down our food so we could leave in time to get the land rover back before our allotted four hours were up! |
