Christmas 2011

This year's Christmas I spent in different style. Philippine crew from the Atlantic Explorer organize Christmas dinner at the dock next to the ship. They made every effort to ensure that everything was nice and festive. They roasted a pig on the spit and prepared a lot of delicious food like turkey, shrimps or spring roles. We also prepared some food for this occasion. Each one of us made some special meal from our country. So there was Russian vegetable salad, Indian rice and milk, Brazilian 'pudding', Japanese sushi, Chinese dumplings and Polish pierogi off course. Chunli put a coin inside one of the dumplings for a good luck in coming year to the person who finds it. The lucky one turned to be Pri - congrats!!  
Everything was great except of the weather. But it didn't stop us from having good time. We were eating all the delicious dishes and listening to the american carols. After dinner the crew set up a karaoke and most of us tried their hand in singing with bad and... worse effect :-) and after midnight the party started.
