NASSAU

Just arrived in Nassau and about to go through to Paradise Island. Glorious weather. Life on board is fabulous - food is excellent - "Weight-Watchers" will definitely be receiving a new client on our return! I did manage a half-hour session at the gym yesterday having consumed a large hot breakfast followed by 2 - yes 2 - delicious chocolate croissants! We have met such interesting people from all over the world and everyone is so friendly. We're all enjoying the last day ahead of the arrival/onslaught of 650 students tomorrow. Gus starts teaching on Tuesday morning having been very thoroughly "orientated" (faculty had another 3 orientations yesterday which seem to cover everything possible eventuality) We're both still overwhelmed at the luxurious suite we have here - sitting out on our deck at night under a spectacular star-lit sky last night - luxuriating in a large tub in a beautifully equipped bathroom - sipping a cold glass of wine from our fridge - turning on the TV to bring us back to reality - having our room cleaned and replenished with fluffy white towels twice a day are just a few of things we have to put up with each day - home was never like this !!!! Have a great day.
