At Sea

            On Sunday, 20 Oct 2013, Sally awoke about 6:30 AM and was out of bed by 7:00 AM; Jesse slept until about 8:00 AM.  At breakfast, we shared a table with Nori and Tony form Chicago.  They are “Elite” Princess cruisers and have been onboard since Vancouver (even longer than us).  They told us how nice it is to have complimentary laundry service, which comes with “Elite” status.  After breakfast, Sally worked on our blog and Jesse went to a Merengue dance lesson.  He ended up with Lenata for a dance partner, and learned a few new steps, through which he should easily lead Sally; however, the Merengue is one of the dances that Sally doesn’t enjoy (too much jumping around – her view).

Lunch with Niona & Dennis

We met Niona and Dennis for lunch at 12:30 PM, where we found out that we have been spelling Niona’s name incorrectly.  Our conversation topics ranged from the Vietnam War to current real estate prices around the world.  After conversing until almost 4:00 PM, we returned to our cabin to get ready for dinner.

After dinner, we danced to the Superfly Band in the Explorer’s Lounge for 30 minutes before retiring for the night to rest up for another early morning and a very hot day in Bangkok, Thailand.
