Sea Day – April 15

Sea Day – April 15

I didn’t walk the track this morning since the photo shoot was right in the middle of when I normally walk. I’m not sure why they didn’t schedule it on one of the previous days when it wasn’t so hot out, but here we are.

They got us all set up and started to take the photo and many yelled “it’s too early”. In 2017, they took the photo like 2 to 3 minutes early and people that showed after that time were angry. They made such a fuss that Princess had to do a reshoot on a different day. So, we waited for a few more minutes and photos were taken.

Right after the photo op, they had the annual world cruise tug off war contest. In 2017, our waiter was on the team that won. This year, the galley crew team won. They were up against a team of really huge guys and no one expected them to win. They lost the first one and then won the next 2 times for the best of 3. 

After that we went to Bingo. I was down to 1 number on 2 cards so when #52 was called I yelled Bingo. At the same time Greg called Bingo. He also needed #52 on 2 cards. So, instead of $70 or $35 each we got $36 each for $72, since we both had 2 claims, Not sure what the odds were of that happening.

For lunch we went upstairs for the Golden Dragon Buffet.

Tonight, there was a Production show called “Talk of the Town” which they have performed before on this cruise. They have had many new shows since they have been on board and this is the first one that they have repeated.

The evening trivia was Discover Channel “Velocity”. It turned out to be all about cars. (not our strong suit) Dwain came over and joined us and named the team “Memories of 2013” since we were on the 2013 WC together. We didn’t do well at all, as we expected.

We got to set the clocks back another hour, so we get an extra hour of sleep tonight which helps when getting up early.

Tomorrow, we visit Natal, Brazil.
