Saturday, May 18- At Sea

We are sailing back to Copenhagen. We have had great weather all week. Today it is very foggy, but it doesn't matter.. We can stay in all day as there are a lot of activities going on.
I get up at 6:30 and go for my last workout. The fog is thickening as time goes by. When I finish an hour later you can barely see the water outside. This is a drag as Shirley and I had thought of going to play pickleball today. It is played outdoors and it is the only day that we have seen it as an activity.
After showering we start to pack a bit. Barb, Nancy, and I go for breakfast. Shirley still feels full after last night's dinner. I'm also not ravenous so I have fruits mixed with cottage cheese and walnuts. Barb and Nancy have French toasts. We return to our rooms around 9am. We pack a bit more then go to morning trivia at 10:00. We score 12/20, not close at all to winning.. There's not too much to do this morning with Pickleball being cancelled so we all go to an art session at 11. They are serving Mimosas, but we pass. Shirley and I leave early to go grab a bite in the buffet. At noon we return to the art auction. There are pieces by Peter Max valued at over $23,000. No one is bitting at those paintings, but they are buying lots of others.

Getting ready for trivia

Two Peter Max little doggies

I leave the art show to see the jive dancing lessons. It's a small dancing area and I don't have a partner so I watch. I return to hear who won the contest on guessing the weight of the cat. One person had an amazingly close guess. We return to listen to some raggae at the Centrum but it's too slow to dance to. Shirley and I decide to go see a movie but the cinema is full so off to the Tropical Theather to watch the Love and Mariage game. We find it quite lame, so we leave. 

Barb brought a bottle of wine on board so being the last night, we have to drink it. We each have a glass in our rooms and relax for a few hours. Our reservations are at six once again tonight. We see that all of the tables are full tonight so Ian and Reggie are busier than usual.

There were so many of these. It was so impressive.

After this show we make our way to the Safari Club to play a visual movie game. They place a picture of an actor/actress and we need to name the person and the film. It's hard. We get 26/40 pts. And for the last time, we go to the Centrum to listen to the cruise orchestra as they are playing some Count Basie, Duke Ellington, and Glen Miller tunes. We are back in our rooms at 10:15. Sunset is at 10:20 tonight. Still quite light outside. There's still lingering fog so the sunset is not as clear as it has been. Clocks go back tonight, so gaining some sleep time. Shirley and I watch a movie for about 30-40 minutes. We are packed and ready to leave after breakfast in the morning.

Last sunsets with lingering fog.
