Thank you so much,
I was on this voyage as a child, celebrating my eleventh birthday at sea. Attending
lessons aboard - all ages together.
My brother caused mayhem for my mother by swimming out to the Shark safety nets
at one of the ports. I vividly remember people throwing coins to into the water at
Port Said for a young local boy to dive in and retrieve , his cheeks bulging.
I experienced my first very wet Trishaw ride in Penang.
Arriving in Singapore was magical, mysterious and exciting, a palm fringed shore, strangely
dressed people but most of all Dad was there to meet us after a long separation.
We were lucky to have experienced this journey as children, it was great fun.
Once again Thank you Seaweed, I now have exact dates for family photographs.
The only one I as sure of was that we are at sea on my birthday!
