At Sea

            Sunday, 28 Sep 2014 – We both slept later than usual, and went to breakfast about 10:00 AM.  Afterwards, we went up for a swim, but the pool was so crowded that we decided to delay our swim until after lunch.   Although Sally had been calling it “our pool” because we had seemed to be almost the only ones using it, apparently others had found it!  Until 1:00 we worked on packing, and then hurried to the Tango lesson.  There, we learned the basic steps to the Argentine Tango, which we hope to remember when we get back to Iowa.  Afterwards we went for a quick lunch.  Also, we checked out the swimming pools, but they were all overflowing with people, so we returned to our cabin and continued our packing.

            Jim and Kim decided not to eat dinner with us tonight, so we shared a table with three other couples – all from Florida.  One of the couples had shared the dance floor with us on a few occasions.  Two of the men were retired postal workers.  We heard a lot about the Holland America and Royal Caribbean cruise lines, and will definitely have to try them out sometime.  After dinner, we danced to the Sundown Duo in the Wheelhouse Bar.  They played one Tango, but we chose to do the ballroom Tango instead of trying out the new one.  We danced for about 45 minutes before retiring for the night.
