Star Cruise on Virgo ~ 18 to 20 Nov 2011




Three words - Food and Food....

Cruise to nowhere. It was actually cruising on sea near Kukup, West Malaysia. The speed of the cruise ship was 7km/hr as measured by my GPS. Almost like brisk walking speed. Being such a huge ship, it was very stable and I could not feel the waves pendulum motion.

Food was available from breakfast, lunch, break, dinner and supper on buffet style. First night dinner was superb with grilled beef, chicken etc (available only on first on 18 Nov 11). Fantastic for people who want to put on weight.

Dawn on the sea was beautiful. However, there were clouds on the horizon. Night time crusing was cool on a quiet and pitch black sea. The only sound on the deck was only the crashing waves.

The crowd were drawn to the casino on board. I lost $60 on jackpot, an amount which I was prepared to loose (in less than an hour).Crew on board were mainly filipino and Chinese.
