These were the first three of six continuous days at sea as we cross the Atlantic. As is typical with days at sea, they were low-key, do nothing (or not much) days.
The “highlights” of Day 7 were some trivia contests where I did moderately well, plus time spent reading and losing money in the casino. The good news (VERY good news) is that Marlene, after her nasty fall on Day 6, was up and walking. Painfully, but walking. Nothing broken or seriously injured, I think. We were able to attend the Captain’s Party which featured free drinks and great music by the Miracle Rockband. We were introduced to the senior officers too.
Day 8 was the same except that I lost at cards too. I also spent time blogging (through Day 6) because I purchased a day of internet access. We also attended the second full-scale show of the cruise: “88 Keys,” a musical revue of piano tunes.
The highlight of Day 9 was shopping. OK, I never view shopping as a highlight of any day but on this day Marlene purchased a ring for herself.
The casino was unkind all three days. Down $320.
