At sea -- The good times and bad times

Tuesday, May 25, 2010

The bad:  Rough seas on the inside passage since last evening maybe about 8:00.  I was feeling pretty green, and didn't even get to go the Dessert Buffet to nibble the night away.  Things calmed down about 9:00 this morning, but it was about noon by the time I felt good enough to get moving.

The good:  Enjoyed a great day from then on.  First on the schedule: the Captain's Luncheon, enjoying tarts, fruit, bruschetta, some delicious concoction in a phyllo cup, and pretty, tropical drinks.  Very nice, Captain.  Thank you for the invite.

 

The good 2: Don and I participated in the On Deck for the Cure walk.  It was to be a 5K walk around the ship's upper deck, but because I was pretty tired, we didn't make the whole distance.  We paid our fee, got the T-Shirt and posed for a corny picture. 

The good 3: Today was the day our Tour Group met at the pool for a final goodbye.  We certainly enjoyed our first bus tour experience, and after talking with some other groups on the ship who weren't as lucky, we know now that the group you're with makes all the difference!   We didn't have any complainers, no petty whining, nothing but a great group of people ready to enjoy the next adventure.  It was great! 

So long, Alaska.  Hope to visit you again some day.
