Day 8 Tuesday 31 March 2015

There was a talk on the sinking of the Emden by HMAS Sydney  which was a little disappointing and seem to have a bit of a nationalistic slant, largely overlooking the criticisms of the Captain Glossop firing on the beached Emden and how those on the Cocos and Keeling islands reacted to the German visit.  They gave the Grmans 3 cheers when they left. I just think that people would have gone away from the talk with a false impression of what actually happened.
The highlight had to be Kate Cebrano in concert, just superb.  Being so close and she does her show a bit like Bette Midler. Sensational voice and I thought Darryl was going to be the biggest hit but it’s her!  She obviously liked Fleetwood Mac growing up, which may explain why her daughter is called Gypsy.

She had two hard boiled eggs and cheese for breakfast, or so Elizabeth tells me, I hope that this doesn’t make us stalkers.  The passengers are pretty cool about it (Kate Cebrano not Elizabeth and I being stalkers) and respect her privacy as she goes about the ship with her family.
