Today the phone rang. To my surprise it was the Cruise Company!
More precisely it was Chris, the man taking my Junior Assistant Cruise Director (henceforth JACD) training on the ship next week. We had a great old chat at the company's international-phone-call expense and I finally got (a little bit) more information about what I'm going to be doing for the next 10 days.
I'm undertaking my training (which is specific to JACD) with six other recruits - there'll be four from the UK, two from Canada... and me.
Apparently the week is going to be "incredibly intense" and will "wipe us out". So looking forward to it!
I asked for information about which ship I was likely to be sent to after training, but the other end was very coy about answering this question. If it's because I'm being sent to P&O I'll stab my face off.. But I don't think that will happen- they promised they wouldn't!
Tonight also marked my last giant freestyle sundae of the year - it was supposed to also be a chance for me to catch up with some of my instructor friends before I left... but due to multiple illnesses (and a few unexplained absences) it ended up being an excellent chance to catch up with my wonderful friend Julie, who gave me the raddest ever passport holder - which looks stunning inside my (also excellently gifted) travel wallet.
I also got the chance to see an excellent-good friend of mine that I havnt seen for a while - and recieved the most excellent birthday gift of a Freestyle gift voucher - muuuch appreciated!
2 full days left in Brisbane... yeah como
