Day At Sea

            Wednesday, 13 Feb 2019 – Since Sally didn’t sleep well and was up by 6:30 PM, we went to breakfast at 7:00 AM and napped afterward, only to be awakened for a mandatory lifeboat drill.  Apparently, drills are required every 14 days.  (Since we did not remember this occurring on previous cruises, it might be a new requirement.)  After the drill, we swam for a half hour.  Others were standing in the pool, but they were kind enough to stay to one side while we swam our laps.

Terrace Cafe with Marie & Pamela

At lunch, we sat at a table for four with Dean and Darlene, where we enjoyed good conversation.  We found out that Dean’s birthday is the day after Jesse’s (in March), but we can’t celebrate together; by then, they will have left this ship for a different cruise.  Also, Jesse had one of the waitresses take a photo of him with Marie and Pamela who were sitting at the table next to ours.  We danced again after dinner and the orchestra actually played a waltz!
