Sunset in Pataya the next evening
Both the sunsets and the sunrise are often spectacular, and for the past two nights (March 29 and 30, on the way to and from Phuket) there were lightening discharges all through the night. Every few seconds the sky would light up! However, there was no sound of thunder to be heard.
The round ball in this picture is the sun setting!
Today, March 31st, I managed to get outside and walk on the deck, same as yesterday (only yesterday, I had company!). However, yesterday it was hot and sunny, and today it was comfortable and breezy. Tomorrow, we land in Yangon (formerly Rangoon) and it will already be April 1st! My, how the time has flown since January. I guess the saying is true that time flies when there are interesting things to do. However, I have to admit that my bridge game has not really improved a great deal, and I can't seem to lose any of the weight I gained in the first few weeks!
In Rangoon a few of us are hiring a taxi to take us to visit the famous Shwedagon Pagoda at night. That's it for today! I'm always glad to hear from any of you that care to write, even if I don't manage to answer you individually. All good wishes, Ann

Hi Ann, sounds like you are having a wonderful cruise. No wonder you want to do it again. Hope you have gotten rid of your cough!
We are all fine. I am in Ocean city and it's still a little too cold for my taste! Next year I won't come back until late May or June. Tomorrow Linda and I are going on a cruise, too!! In Washington,DC, to see the cherry blossoms. I have never seen them in real life, only on tv.
Thanks for sharing your trip on your blog.
