Another two days at sea and we are still finding new and interesting things to occupy our time. Yesterday Ken, Bill and Diane did a bit of exploring
aboard ship and capped their afternoon off with a 360 degree view of the ship
from the North Star. All returned to
earth enthusiastic with the experience and anxious to go again. I do not do heights so I did not regret
missing the adventure. However, there is
a movement aboard that would have me push aside my earthly limitations and
experience the adventure. I have agreed
to study the experience from a distance before saying my final no.
Today, mother’s day, cards from
both Gary and Terri expressed their acknowledgment of my right to celebrate in
very pretty cards with very special personalized messages that brought a tear
to my eyes. We capped the day off with dinner in the Grande Restaurant (the
grandest of the restaurants aboard ship) in proper festive attire to add a bit
of flair to the day.
As we were finishing dinner the ship made a
stop off Gibraltar to medivac some fellow passengers ashore for medical treatment. Our travel so far has met expectations in
comfort, service and the entertainment has been superb.
Tomorrow we venture ashore to
explore Cartegena, Spain. That will be the subject of another discourse.
