Actually we can look forward to very diverse offerings at mealtime, but I thought this photo was kind of funny. Last nght we did have an octopus and onion salad appetizer before our meal commemorating the Battle of Trafalgar and the death of Lord Admiral Horatio Nelson, Including a recitation of his lifes great moments by the Captain, and a toast to his immortal memory.
Some of you might be aware that one of Nelsons most famous battles occured in this very spot, The Bay of Abu Kir ( and the Battle of the Nile) and that we excavated several shipwrecks from that battle, including Napoleon Bonaparte's flag ship, L'Orient.
