Third Sea Day

We enjoyed a relaxing day at sea today, our last sea-day on this cruise. The highlight of my day was 4 hours of bridge, 2 in the morning and another 2 in the afternoon. 

While I was playing this morning, Mary went to the cooking show and kitchen tour. In the cooking show, the head chef and Maitre 'D prepared an appetizer, pasta dish, and dessert.  Here's one picture she took of the food preparations and some of the prepared sandwiches and salads in the ship's kitchen.

Today's buffet lunch was exceptionally good.  It included peanut butter and banana sandwiches, pot pies, and had a super good dessert table featuring Tiramisu, cannoli, pineapple cake and many other choices.

After lunch we stopped by the Tanzanite talk and drawing.  I attended mostly to double Mary's chance of winning, but she did not need this as she was the lucky winner of this beautiful, 3 stone Tanzanite pendant valued at over $125!  She was thrilled to be selected as there were over 3 dozen people attending the talk.  She found it fits quite well on her Omega necklace so she wore that set to dinner.

Speaking of dinner, tonight was the best menu of the cruise - lobster and giant prawns for the entree and floating islands (Mary's all-time favorite) and a hazelnut soufflé for dessert. Check out her picture of Floating Islands.
