It's Monday! What Are You Reading? From Noumea



A weekly event hosted by Sheila from Book Journey to discuss your reading week ~ the books you've read and those you plan on reading in the coming week. I love this meme ... thanks Sheila :)


This post is coming to you from Noumea, but not sure what the internet service will be like so I'm sharing photos of sail away day on Saturday. Our 1st ever P&O cruise on the Pacific Dawn, destination Noumea, Lifou and Vanuatu. Having a wonderful time, the food on board is to-die-for ... I think I'll have to be rolled off the boat and we're slowly working our way through the cocktail list ... yum yum. Favourite so far is the Toblerone.
