Day 3 on this holiday cruise ship, Star Cruise Virgo, also popularly known as a casino cruise ship.

In the morning, we managed to get some beautiful sunrise images as we watched the sunrise from our balcony.

This morning, because mother likes toasted bread for breakfast, we once again headed for Bella Vista. You can get to taste breakfast food of Asian, Western or Chinese styles. Today for the Asian menu, there was nasi lemak (coconut rice) and grilled beef for the Western menu. The fruit selection was good today and there were longans at the buffet counter. The waiter also managed to get some lovely bananas for us.

Whilst waiting for the holiday cruise ship to arrive at port, we had a chat and started discussing our next holiday cruise on star cruise lines, this time intending to go for the 4 days and 3 nights’ trip with stopover in Phuket, Thailand and Penang, Malaysia. At the same time, here are some harbour pictures as we got closer to port.

We had made arrangements with the Reception for assistance with mother in her wheelchair during disembarkation. They came to assist mother at approximately 1105 hrs and all wheelchair passengers on the cruise were allowed to disembark before the other passengers. It seems there were a total of 15 – 20 passengers on wheelchair on this cruise with 1400 other passengers.
