Well, we changed the clocks forward
last night, back to Pacific Time and managed to sleep in until 8:45
this morning.
Dinner at the Pinnacle last night was
quite good. Otto and I had steak, correctly done. Lots of serving
dishes, lots of waiters, excellent crème brulee. This dinner was a
birthday present for Otto from his sister and brother-in-law. Otto
also got a chocolate mousse cake but we had them wrap it and will
have it in the cabin this afternoon with some decaf coffee from room
service. He also got a birthday card from the Captain this morning.
This is the last full sea day and there
are deck sales everywhere. 89.99 watches for 19.99, $10 watches,
scarves, ties (that price hasn't changed all week, Bijou Ternier) but
it is amazing how people flock to them when they put them out on a
deck sale.
Inge and Rufus went to their Mariners'
Brunch for 11 am and we have our Mariners' Lunch at 1 pm. This will
be our first Mariners' Lunch so I'll see how this is handled.
Because it is a sea day, there are lots of things going on. We could
watch the cast rehearse for the show tonight, we could listen to the
environmental officer, we could take part in a bingo to win a cruise,
we could take a virtual bridge tour, we could learn how to fold
towels into creatures or learn how to buy a PC. And of course,
there is always the Spa with body massages, facials, etc. We,
however, choose to do nothing. We are up in the Crow's Nest watching
the world go by. At 11:30 am we are still sailing west of the Queen
Charlotte Islands. Soon we will have Vancouver Island on our port
side. Unless you sail the length of Vancouver Island you really
don't realize how big it actually is. We have driven across it but
never the length of it.
As usual, they are having a fun run “On
deck for the cure” for the Susan G. Komen for the cure effort.
This always brings out lots of walkers on the Promenade Deck.
Tonight from 10:30 to 11:30 there is a
dessert extravaganza. We won't eat but I do like to take pictures
and we will have that opportunity at 10pm. As it turned out, I
didn't take pictures and didn't eat supper, either, except for soup.
Something didn't agree with me so I just stayed in the room. Inge
did the same thing.
