Cruise Day 7 - Sea Day

Another quiet day, blessed with very smooth waters. When we woke this morning, the ship was going a mere 8 mph! Apparently the Captain has lots of time to get to Hubbard Glacier tomorrow so there is no need to rush.  In the afternoon we did speed up to 11 mph to help the stabilizers be more effective.  But after running at top speed for 3 of the first 4 days, this was quite the contrast.   

I played bridge again this morning and had a good time.  In the afternoon was passengers vs crew at Corn Hole.  After everyone had tossed once, the score was tied so we had a sudden death playoff.  I had a chance to win it, but missed so the crew won.  

Tonight was a "dressy" night, HAL's term for what used to be called formal night.  Mary and I both enjoyed a filet mignon as the main course and flowerless chocolate cake for dessert.   You can typically count on having a great choice of entrees on a dressy night.

After dinner was a third Production show called "Timeless". The promotion was that it was songs that have endured though time, from classical to rock. 

That was a great idea and the singers and dancers did a great job, but we only recognized a couple of the songs, and many were in Italian.   Oh well.  

Hubbard Glacier tomorrow!
