Sea Day 1 is almost over. Notice i said "Sea Day". We cruisers have our own language. We have been on the ship for one day but moored. When we are under way on the high seas we call it "Sea Day". You are welcome for the new knowledge.
Let me tell you cruising is not for the faint of heart. We were up at the crack of 6:30 when our coffee was delivered. Just try to get back to sleep after sitting on the balcony and several cups of coffee. It is a trial!
Since we were up breakfast was in order, your typical breakfast buffet. The scrambled eggs may have been powdered but everything else was very nice. Truly, some of our shipmates did not need to eat breakfast, unlike svelte Deb and I. So we merrily stuffed it down. I promised myself i would walk the track several times tomorrow.
We decided to skip, the shuffle board tourney as well as the "Toss", the bingo and other ship sports. Our day consisted of walking the ship, taking some pictures and a nap or two. I am sure we will get the hang of this sailing thing soon.
Our weather is fine so far. It gets cloudy then full sun then cloudy. As i write this it is after sunset and the stars are all out. I mean ALL of them. Wow.
We float, at this position in the Atlantic, 14640 ft above the sea floor and are 355nm into our trip. I do not know how far we will travel. We are steaming along at 18knots. Stay tuned.
We have a limited internet account and won't do much emailing until we hit free wi-fi in some town.
We think Wizard stowed away. either that or his doppleganger is aboard. Pictures to follow.
