Vacation Pictures 1

It has been a bad week - both physically and otherwise. Last weekend I was in and out of the hospital from acute food poisoning. Yes, I have recovered now, at least physically. There are things on my mind that will take a longer time for one to sort, understand and comprehend. In the meantime, here are some pictures from my recent vacation. In this entry, I am posting the pictures I took on and from the ship. Our vacation included a 3 night/4 day cruise on Star Ship Virgo starting from Singapore to Malaysia, Thailand and back to Singapore. This was not my first time on a cruise, yet it was an awesome experience, and I would recommend this as the thing to do for everybody.

This is the lounge and the reception area on Deck 7 of the Ship.


There were a total of 13 decks on Virgo and we were on Deck 11, and had a room with a view and a balcony. One of my nicest moments of the vacation was sitting in the balcony and looking out into the vast expanse of water in front of me, often a view similar to these ones:


Of course, sitting in the balcony with such a view also meant that more often than not profound musings happened. Looking out into the horizon only seemed to enhance the meaninglessness of the self and the world even further. But I don't want to get into that. Here is another of my favourites taken from the balcony; this is the sun setting over the sea:


And finally, for now, here is a view of the Singapore port from Deck 12 of the Ship:


And this is the Ship itself, seen from Penang port.


This is all for now. I shall try and post more as soon as I get more time.
