Cruise Day 5 - half way to the Azores

We had yet another relaxing day today.  Zumba in the morning followed by a Classic Comedian lecture on George Burns.  Before the presentation various quotes from George and his wife Gracie scrolled across the screen so Mary took a picture of this one. The lecture was very interesting as it told the story of how George turned into the straight man for Gracie, then launched a very successful solo career after her passing.
I did better at bridge (experience helps!) as we came in 4th of 11 pairs yesterday and seemed to do pretty well today.
Mary went to a movie about P.T. Barnum in the afternoon.  At dinner tonight we claimed my special retirement dessert gift from Princess.  We finished it off after we had our entree and a Cherries Jubilee dessert. It was delicious!
Mary was able to capture this sunset picture tonight.  She has tried every evening since the clouds cleared, but there were often clouds just at the horizon which blocked the sun.  But tonight she got a great picture.
Two more sea days before we visit the Azores!
