LIFE ON BOARD
A: Stan, this is Kelly. How’s life? Are you having fun on the
cruise?
B: It’s wonderful. I feel so relaxed!
A: What’s your programme?
B: There is no programme and there are no rules. I never
look at my watch. It all depends on the day. I generally
wake up at about seven o’clock. Then I get up, shave,
have a shower, and get dressed. I have an early breakfast
and then decide what to do.
During the day there are so many activities that you’re
never bored. You can train in the gym, play golf or just go
for a walk around the ship.The weather is warm and
beautiful: not a cloud in the sky. You can lie in the sun,
swim in one of the pools, play video games, borrow a
book from the library or learn a language. They say that
anything is possible at sea. You can even get married!
A: Do you ever argue with the other passengers?
B: No, we never argue.
A: Are they nice people?
B: Yes, they’re very pleasant. Everyone gets on well. You can
take your time and you never need to hurry.
A: What about your e-mails?
B: There’s an internet café with broadband. You come in, sit
downand log on. It’s as simple as that. I rest during the
afternoon and then get ready for dinner – the food is first-
rate. After that, I watch a late show and havea drink before
going back to my room and going to bed. I fall asleep
quickly because I get tired when I do nothing.

LA VIE A BORD
A : Stan, c’est Kelly. Comment va la vie ? Est-ce que tu
t’amuses bien en croisière ?
B : C’est génial. Je sens si détendu !
A : Quel est ton programme ?
B : Il n’y a pas de programme et il n’y a pas de règle. Je ne
regarde jamais ma montre. Ça dépend des jours. Je me
réveille en général vers 7 heures. Puis je me lève, me rase,
me douche et m’habille. Je prends le petit déjeuner tôt puis
je décide de ce que je vais faire.
Pendant la journée il y a tellement d’activités qu’on ne
s’ennuie jamais. On peut faire de la gym, jouer au golf ou
simplement se promener sur le navire. Il fait un temps
chaud et magnifique : pas un nuage dans le ciel. On peut
s’allonger au soleil, se baigner dans une des piscines, jouer
aux jeux vidéo, emprunter un livre à la bibliothèque ou
apprendre une langue. On dit que tout est possible en mer.
On peut même se marier !
A : Est-ce que tu te disputes avec les autres passagers ?
B : Non, nous ne nous disputons jamais.
A : Sont-ils sympas ?
B : Oui, ils sont très agréables. Tout le monde s’entend bien.
On peut prendre son temps et on n’a jamais besoin de se
presser.
A : Et concernant tes e-mails ?
B : Il y a une salle Internet haut débit. On y entre, on s’assied
et on se connecte. C’est aussi simple que ça. Je me repose
dans l’après-midi et puis je me prépare pour le dîner – la
nourriture est excellente. Après cela, je regarde un
spectacle et je prends un verre avant de retourner dans ma
chambre et de me coucher. Je m’endors rapidement car je
me fatigue quand je ne fais rien.
