ATW-1 Days 22 & 23: At sea

Posted by on October 11, 2025

Our last two days aboard the Carnival Luminosa and the end of ATW-1. Day 22 was pretty sedate. We had breakfast, then I read and worked on the communal jigsaw puzzle ( 3,000 pieces – NO chance that it will be finished before we reach Sydney). I bought a day of internet because I had no internet in Noumea. I blogged some, then we had dinner at a table of 6 with 4 Aussies. The after-dinner show was a very nice acrobatic show. The same acrobats, I believe, that we saw on the Norwegian Jade. Good show.

Day 23 – our last day at sea – we spent time saying goodbye to new friends after breakfast. I had a hamburger for lunch – the only hamburger I had in 23 days. We played cards and, as usual, Marlene kicked my butt. Her count for the cruise: 8 victories for me and 19 for her. Ouch!

After dinner we packed and then made a final trip to the casino where, as usual, I lost. Total casino losses for the cruise for me: $900. More than I wanted to lose, but within my budget.

This ends ATW-1; ATW-2 begins tomorrow when we dock in Sydney.

I will post an ATW-1 wrapup soon.
