Bosco's Birthday Bash! How convenient that we were in a Port with a Wave Lagoon Pool just minutes away on Bosco's actual birth date, November 3rd.

Super hero party hats were hard to keep on in the waves, especially since these came with the chin straps detached! The party started around 11am and went until pool closing, at 6 pm. Above is the group there for last part of the day. (L to R, back to front) - our life guard, Jeff & Becky, Robert, Gary, Sherrie, MaryAnn, Maui Jim, Scott, Julie, Donna & Butch, Bosco, Me, Frazer and Steph. Sadly, I didn't take any photos in the morning, too busy riding the waves! Special thanks to Jim & Deb for photo's and video below. We also had a rain delay in the early afternoon, where we went to The Precinct Bar & Restaurant, right across from the Pool, to wait out the storm. All in all, we had about 40 friends join in the festivities.

The Ship sail away was at 7:30 pm, so we had dinner on board, where the CREW serenaded Bosco at Dinner with a special cheese burger and song and his cabin door got decorated with words of affirmation from fellow residents.

Little India is a neighborhood in Singapore that I wanted to explore becase I love Indian food and their Temple's have such unique gods and Architecture, super colorful and detailed. Below is the Sri Veeramakaliamman Temple, Singapore's first temple dedicated to Veeramakaliammam or the Kali , a fierce incarnation of Shiva's wife and the "Destroyer of Evil" .

We just relaxed on the Island of Koh Chang, Thailand. It's one of the largest Thai Islands in the Gulf of Thailand and it has a dense, steep jungle & National Park covering the interior of the Island, which extends off shore, to coral reefs. The coast line is dotted with beaches and villages. This was a tender port, so we decided to stay on the Island for 3 nights, to be able to experience the nightlife. Turns out, it is low season, so nightlife was pretty sleepy. However, we did find a new favorite night time activity! Any Guesses?!?
