Days 8,9,10 and 11 - at sea

Saturday 9th September

Left Iceland behind and now sailing across to Canada.  Weather overcast today, some rain about.  Almost feels like the weather alternates between sunny and warm one day and then cloudy with showers the next.

Not much going on during today, usual occupations for us, i.e. not much, but we never seem to have much time to spare!

This evening's entertainment in the Theatre is Becky O'Brian, she sings Judy Garland numbers and sounds a lot like her.  She is one of those child prodigy singers who idolised Judy from the age of two, so she says.

Up to buffet for a light supper, and then back to stateroom to catch up on the progress of hurricane Irma.

 

Sunday 10th September

Spent the morning listening to Captain  Martin Stenzel's interview, lots of chat about his career and how the ships are officered.  With other information and anecdotes.  Then quick wiz down to the trivia.

Time for morning coffee and cake, oh woe is me and my waistline.

Again not much entertainment to attract us today.

Formal dinner tonight, so on with the best bib and tucker.  Crayfish followed by lobster tail for one, fruit soup followed by beefburger for the other.

Off to the theatre for the production show, "DISCO - blame it on the boogie".  The name pretty much describes the show's content, a very energetic and entertaining event.  This ship seems to have a larger group of entertainers than usual, so certainly lots going on.

 

Monday 11th September

The Captain made mention of 911 in remembrance of the lives lost and for the armed forces protecting peace.

Day of doing not much at all again, just a bit of trivia and a couple of turns around the promenade.

Buffet dinner today.  Followed by the Captains Circle Cocktail Party free drinks and a few nibbles, always a popular choice.  Most travelled passenger was a lady with 2316 sea days, that's about 6 years 4 months on a Princess ship. The next most travelled couple at 1802 sea days. almost exactly 5 years.  We are currently on 82 sea days!!!!!

Country and Western music trivia and Variety Showtime with Paul Boland, a singer and impressionist.  Afraid I left the impressionist after a few minutes and rejoined the trivia.

 

Tuesday 12th September

If you can believe it think we did even less today.

Outside a foggy day, fog horn going pretty much all day.

Just our usual entertainment and that was about it.
