A Quiet Day at Sea

No pictures for today since it was spent cruising at sea. We did not do much - took in some shopping and port lectures and read books. I did play duplicate bridge this afternoon which was nice since I rarely get to play bridge in person.
This was the first of 3 Formal Nights, but we skipped the formal dinner in the dining room since the menu did not look all that intriguing. Upon arriving that the buffet, we found that they turn that into a version of "anytime dining" where we ordered from a menu. They had some nice selections so it worked out pretty good.
Tonght's show was a song and dance presentation based on the songs from the 20's and 30's. Cole Porter, et al. Definitely appealing to the average age of the cruisers. Before the show that band played "Moon River" and other vintage songs. Several couples came out on the dance floor while Mary and I stayed glued to our seats. 8-)
Tomorrow we have a half day in Ketchican. I'm looking forward to our excursion to visit the Alleutian Ballard which had been featured in earlier seasons of The Deadliest Catch. After that we'll have a couple of hours of shopping, then back to the ship by 1:30.
