Today was a day of relaxation. I really do not understand
how these sea days go by so fast. Right now it is about
1030 pm. We have traveled 625 miles from New York.
There are about 1713 more to go before our next port. The
outside air temperature is 49. Over all it was a very grey
day, with a few sprinkles here and there. The day started
off with very smooth seas, but as the day went on we
started getting some white caps. A bit rocky but not too
bad. Don’t forget to check the link above to see the live
web cam. It is also a very different crowd than last year
much more subdued. It appears as if many more people
came with larger groups.
Started the day with a light breakfast, and then went to the
spa for a couple of hours. Instead of doing the buffet for
lunch we went to the grand pacific dining room. We have
never gone to a dining room for lunch before. Of notable
interest was the chilled blueberry soup.
It was then time for a nap.
We then headed out to the stardust theater to see the
show “colors”.
For Diner we headed to the Magenta dining room. Service
and food were excellent. We started with a tuna tartar,
fatosh, Chris had a Cesar salad instead spaghetti
cabonara, and Chris also had a side of monk fish. Desert
was a chocolate caramel mound as well as a banana split
cheese cake for Chris. He may need to buy larger pants
when he gets home lol.
We turn the clocks ahead one hour tonight.
