Free Cruise

My brother Thomas is working for Herbalife and he achieved his goal of taking the 11 days totally free cruise from Sydney to New Caledonia and Vanuata.
On top of that because of he has reached higher sale target that allowed him to upgrade his room to a VIP room that is way bigger and also has a balcony.
Furthermore he could bring one more person to go on board with no cost also. Instead of taking his gf he took my mum coz his gf thought family should come first. Hmm...what a nice gf !
I think to some other girls if the bf took mum to holiday that gf sure manjak already !
Mum had been sick for the first 2 days. Thats what called sea sick caused her non stop vomitting and she was hardly take in any food. When my brother saw her vomitting he vomited once also.
There are few things that mum and my brother have mentioned about the cruise that I would like highlight here.
1) Mum told me for the first day she was exploring the cruise so she walked everywhere and she realised that there are many big envelopes hanging everywhere. She did not know what was that for until one day she was walking and suddenly she wanted to vomit so she just grabbed those envelop and puked inside. Since then she realised what are those envelopes used for.
2) Food are totally free no matter its buffets or Formal dinner. There are abosultely free. Herbalife are encouring people to to eat well and to lose weight but on the cruise they have forgot about it. All they did was enjoy their food to the max. Imagine 3 dishes for main course???
3) Herbalife has been really generous. Even tips that payable to waiter/waitress were prepared by Herbalife by putting money into envelops and given to Herbalife members to give to the waiter/waitress. How nice !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
4) One day mum and few friends went to pool. As soon as they jumped into the pool all other people who are westerners have disappeared from the pool in less than 5 minutes. Their racism and attitude are absolutely obvious which really really disgusted ! FYI - the cruise are not all for Herbalife members. The cruise take 2000 passengers. Herbalife had about 200 members on board so the rest are passengers either from Australia or other countries.
5) Mum told me there was a conference held by the cruise for each department to introduce what are their responsible and who should be contacted for particular services. When a lady from laundry service was on the stage given speech and advised should anyone have any question can ask her. A friend who sat next to my mum trying to tell my mum that his bath towel is white too and was taken by room service person who may thought its the cruise asset too. He wanted to ask if he could get his own bath towel back. There was this westerner lady in the front row turned her head back and " shuuu shuuu shuuu shuuu" to give sign to mum and the friend that they should stop talking. Mum told me that she was speaking too with her friends and very loud. Once again racism !! why she could speak and others cannot???? Another disgusted incident that I heard ! If I was there I wont keep my mouth shut !
Other than these 2 disgusted incidents I guess they were all enjoyed so much on the TOTAL FREE CRUISE for 11 DAYS !!!!!
The cruise arrived back in Sydney early in the morning. And mum insisted to take Adam down to the city to farewell the cruise in the evening. She was crazy because she hates going to city but that day it was cold and wet wet weather but still wanted to go !!! Lucky we were right on time to see the cruise leaving ! Mum was sad to see it leaving.
