Before I update today's activities and observations I need to acknowledge Patrick and Tracy for their help in making this blog more interesting and user friendly. Patrick is responsible for the map at the top of the blog which gives you a picture of our itinerary. Tracy is responsible for making it work with the blog and the nautical themed background. Tracy is amazingly talented in web based application design and her efforts made this blog much better.
Finally, the map is really neat and you can click on settings in the upper right corner to see it from Google earth.
Today's activities have been somewhat restricted due to the high seas we are experiencing. As reported yesterday the ginger has been a real help in eliminating sea sickness. Who knew? Ginger is made available at each restaurant and seems to do a nice job without having to take any real medication. The entertainment for this evening has been cancelled due to the weather and replaced with a solo guitar player.
The pictures I have attached are from yesterday and show Chris in front of the ship and the two of us toasting the start of our extended journey. One quick observation: Champagne seems to flow like water. It is surprising to see the amount of that bubbly stuff people can drink in a boat being tossed about. What will happen when we hit calmer seas will be interesting.
