The steamer is leaving shortly. We are heading to San Francisco, which will take us 22 days. Don't worry plenty of fun and relaxation on our journey to USA.
Scheduler for this afternoon including Zumba on the upper deck, Pilates on the lower deck, massages and pedicure behind the waterfall at the bottom of the volcano and wine tasting by sommeliers who looks very much like Daniel and Idris
This evening there are foxtrot lessons on the dancefloor. Then we have two special guest appearances - Ricky and Jon Finally your favourite cocktails served all night.
Heard your plea for us to post daily as you have difficulty tracking lost travellers down. Can well understand! A big thanks to you for running this trip for us - we really appreciate it and it motivates us all sometimes to go that extra mile! I haven't finished today but will definitely make at least 15.3 k before I get home late tonight. if I go over - or under - I'll adjust tomorrow's figure (promise, no cheating). Will be a tiring day tomorrow as we're going hiking in the Alps. Assuming the weather doesn't spoil our plans.
Hope the lost travellers are slowly slinking back.
Please accept my apologies for not posting the last couple of days, its been really hectic at work and I've been feeling under the weather full of cold again with an awful cough!! Cold easing off today but cough still bothering me.
Thursday - 0km
Friday - 6.4 km exercise bike (just couldn't manage any more)
Saturday - 7.3 km exercise bike
Really sorry again for being absent and not posting.
Wow what a floating island you have chosen for us to travel on, to San Francisco. Not very good at the foxtrot but will enjoy those cocktails. 18.5 km for me today including 10k on my exercise bike (just dusted off after being unused in the garage for a couple of years). Have a great weekend everyone🚴🏽
Woohoo Mimsta! What a brilliant number! Exercise bikes are great for clocking up the K's
5km today, still struggling so only one dog walk. Mr F is dog walking duty for a couple of days to give me a chance to recover, will his kms do instead of mine ??? Why have a dog and bark yourself 🐾🐾woof lol😃
I am feeling a bit better today so I have managed to do 4km, in the mountains tomorrow taking my grandson for his first skiing lesson so I'm not sure how many steps will get done, I will aim t more than today though, thanks for keeping me motivated x
Oh very big moreless, thank you I'm so, so happy and it goes to show that resting does also pay off. I listened to my body and it got better so fast. I'm happy and healthy
Hi all, looking forward to chilling on the steamer My kms for today are 3.5 can't wait for my antibiotics to kick in! Ed has done 33kms - 5.1 spring clearing the garden, 5.3 dog walking and 22.6 spinning
You chill away Kate Spring clearing in the middle of winter?! Kate, what are you doing to poor Ed to drive him out to the garden in truly horrendous weather?!
I'm surprised I managed 4.4 km today since it's rained non-stop! An amble round the supermarket and walking on the spot a bit. I really will try to get my 10000 steps done tomorrow!
Am enjoying the trip though. Thanks for keeping us in order!!
I decided to enjoy the storm from inside today. But I did potter round the house a bit and I also ran 4k on my treadmill (c25k week 4 - my furthest yet!) So a total of 4.6k today. If I don't ache too much in the morning I'm going to brave a walk into town. Now I have my fitbit back in action my motivation for getting those little lights has coming flooding back too : )
hi Bu-dog many thanks for you kind words, its nice when people understand what your going through, it will be nice if Mr sunshine would stick his head out up here, take care must say before i nearly forgot to say i'm feeling a bit more of me today than yesterday, just tiredness now but i have to cope with that every day take care speak with you later my friend Alan xx
hi there must apologize first. when i first read you opening line i thought you said i look like the boat, i haven't got my reading glasses on. many thanks what's helping me is it doesn't matter how many or how small your comments are so cheerful, to start off i thought you where just being kind, but the comments i've read not only from you but Lizzy and others are genuine and warming. so may i say a BIG THANK YOU to you all for your genuine comments your friend always Alan xx
Trip up Box Hill dog walking with family and so on- 8.9km 😀 Meantime back abroad I'm looking forward to a few sessions in the pool and just chilling taking a stroll round the deck with Idris
Bu-dog is right, you just need to give your name to Fizzyliz or Moreless, and they will ensure you are added to the list of people partaking in this Around the World in 80 Days challenge, and then you can record your kms - I think it is open to all.
You are more than welcome to join us on our trip of a lifetime. All we ask is that you log your kilometres walked, run, cycled, swum, danced, rowed, daily with us.
Sorry to be late checking in. Last night with Daniel.......well, what can I say!!
Only managed 8.1 kms today, Saturday, 12132 steps. Hoped to do more to save some calories for tonight's curry but it didn't quite go according to plan.
On the plus side I chose to drive so no wine, shared a starter, main meal with a spoonful of rice and one bit of naan. No desert so damage limitation I hope.
Looking forward to enjoying all our cruise to San Francisco has to offer. Happy days!!
Poor Daniel is suffering from PTSD since you strapped him to your bedstead!
Sounds as if you were very restrained with your curry and went alcohol free - well done you! That and 8.1K's must have seen you avoiding any weight gain
5.1 miles for me yesterday. It sounds a lot but my Fitbit measures every step I take in 24 hours. Actually the weather was so foul yesterday I only managed a hour's walk in driving wind and rain with my dogs. We were all soaked but they loved it. love my dogs. 💦💦🐩🐩
I'll bet your dogs love you too Florence, especially as you're willing to take them out in all weathers. Good for you!
Oh I'm ashamed to say that we had an awful day yesterday due to the weather. Lots of wind and rain all day down here and really miserable Consequently we did nothing except sit in front of the fire and watch a St Trinians film !! I guess we need to put something down so Mr L and I probably managed a km each going round Sainsburys in the morning !!
However, I've just thrown Mr L out the door for a run, and I'm going once he gets back, so we should be back on track for today's kms ! (I need to, ate too much food yesterday !!)
Oh yes - Joyce Grenfell, Terry Thomas, George Cole, Alastair Sim etc !
Looking back now though, they are incredibly un-PC. Feminists everywhere would be turning in their grave !! I had to keep pointing out to my daughter that they didn't treat women like that anymore
Yesterday was really awful weather here, too (Devon). We braved the outside world once to go the the post office and look at the river level - awesome!!!
This morning there's an almost blue sky, so out for a little walk before the rain later 😊
Morning! Don't think I gave you Friday. So here are both!
Ok so firstly apologies again, I am planning to return to work tomorrow. I am not quite right yet nor 100% fit so am terrified about having enough energy to last the day. I have therefore been reaĺly resting and getting plenty of sleep. I also watched rugby all afternoon yesterday. 😕
So all these excuses because my kms lower than most of poorly days. I know when I am back at work and well again I will be back to hitting target.
Happy birthday Cazmaz, so sorry to be late with the greetings Wow, that was a very energetic birthday, wtg you!
I was all over Oxford street for a bit.... then it all went wrong and we ended up in a cocktail bar! Once spicy tequila cocktail and a couple of coffee martinis later and I won't be making my class this morning! Only got self to blame! and it was great fun seeing some friends haven't seen for ages so no regrets. Going to Kew later so will make sure I have walking shoes on and get some km in for this! Have a good day all!
Book me a massage and pedicure please!!! I managed 5,320 steps yesterday ... Very busy day running up and down stairs!! Looking forward to exploring this fabulous boat!! 😊😊 ps. Lost the post that told me how to convert my steps (that was the time I couldn't post any replies grrrrr )
Good morning - completed 7.7km yesterday - Saturday. A good walk with my dad down by the river, (unfortunately) followed by dinner out so chips consumed!! And to the ballet. But no alcohol consumed as I was the driver 😀.
