The sky is blue and the seas are rather calm...a perfect day to be on a cruise!
We are getting a routine for our sea days; Dick up by 7AM and Carolyn up by 8:30AM. Dress and off to breakfast in the dining room. The rest of the morning spent at a lecture for Dick and a workshop for Carolyn or working on this blog in our room. Lunch at 1PM and then some sort of class or workshop and Trivia in the afternoon.
Dick goes to hear the historian talk about the Jean-Francoise de Galaup Expedition. Carolyn has a second lesson in Quilling. She makes several flowers that will eventually be used to decorate a card.
At noon the Captain gives us our location 26:32:25 N, 137:05:56 W. We go to the main dining room for lunch: French Onion soup and crab salad for Carolyn and seared yellowfin tuna salad for Dick. We have sailed 1,120 miles from LA. The waves are 5 to 7 ft and it is 13,000 ft to the sea bed. The temperature is 71 degrees and party cloudy. It is a rather nice day and the decks are finally open.
After lunch Carolyn heads off to learn more about making leis from June and to work on a needlepoint project during tea time in the Galileo Lounge with Amanda, the wardrobe mistress for the performers. Dick explores the ship for a reading nook, gets some personal banking done on-line and goes to trivia.
We join up again in the Galileo Lounge after tea time for a cocktail.
Dinner tonight is at Sette Mari for the second time. Carolyn makes a meal off the little bits and Dick has Osso Buco. We enjoy another glass or two of Chianti. Again we are ready to get comfortable and stretch out so no show again tonight. Carolyn tries to get the blog caught up, is having trouble getting the pictures to load. She calls it a night and reads for awhile.
