Costa Fortuna Postcard #4 (Fujairah) Khor Fakkan

Arrival at Khor Fakkan

Fujairah City from the port

It was our intention to do a trip to a local hotel today and use the beach facilities, however having discussed it over dinner last night we elected to stay on board. The ships tours suggest little of interest to us and so it was an easy decision in the end. All the ship offered was Fujairah and its traditions, Desert and Wadi Safari or A day at the beach!
We have an all inclusive drinks package, the ship won't be full and there will be food that won't require us spending any money.
The port is a very commercial area and we were berthed in an area full of containers. Even more amusing was they were even being used to form a perimeter around the ship.

The day was spent just lounging around by the pool and making the most of the excellent weather. Its a wonder how I am managing to sleep doing so little! Plenty of wine from the all inclusive helps!

Finally, the ships WiFi is an absolute nightmare and so I have resorted to making use of my phone to make the posts, the phone signal is excellent and there is plenty of 3G so fortunately I am just about able to keep the blog going for the time being. If I go quiet then its because the technology has let me down.
