Day 11 - Safe Haven

On our way through the southern part of the Red Sea on our way to Aden Bay, which we will pass for the next three days. We prepared for the increased safety on board due to the risk of pirate boats in the Gulf of Aden - there was the 'Safe Haven' exercise where we were briefed on how to behave in the event of encountering pirate boats in the Gulf of Aden. In the middle of the Red Sea, we met with a ship from NMG Maritime which brought on board additional safety equipment with a RIB craft. In addition to the usual RCCL security personnel, there are also security personnel from Protection Vessels International. 
Tonight we got Caesar salad, fried salmon and a birthday cake - RCCL has its 50th anniversary i 2019.
