Dawn Princess - September 2016 - Post 5

Some people and events around the ship.

I was extremely honoured when the Maitre d' hosted a lunch for me with the senior Hotel and Food and Beverage staff. The executive chef personally prepared a superb meal for us. From my left: Francesco (Executive Chef, Italy), Osvaldo (Hotel General Manager, Italy and his wife, Gabriella, Austria), Larry (Head Waiter, Philippines), Sunny (Assistant Maitre d', India), David (Bar Supervisor, UK), Victoria (Bar Supervisor, Philippines), Edward (Bar Manager, India), Wolfgang (Food and Beverage Director, Germany) and Michael (Maitre d', South Africa).

I was given an award for having accrued the third highest number of Princess cruise days (450 days, 77 cruises) among the passengers on board.

This excellent Ukranian duo played before dinner each night in one of the lounges.

 

This reggae band and rock guitarist (below) played on the pool deck at lunchtime on alternate sea days.

Tara and Filipe at the Oasis Bar, off the Kimberleys.

Ketut and Jafferson at the Tradewinds Bar as we sailed down the Brisbane River.

With the ever wonderful bar staff in Magnums, Anna and (below) Darwin and Rey.

With bar Manager Edward.

With the fabulous restaurant staff who look after me: waiters Jokee and Stefani, Head Waiter Larry and Maitre d' Michael. This table is always reserved for me every time I'm on this ship.

Having a few beers in the Barrier Reef Hotel, Cairns, with good mates Billy London (Cruise Director) and David White (Bar Supervisor).
