09-16-24

 

Day 2 was at sea all day.  ALL DAY!  Way more turbulent too.  I feel much better when I am facing the direction we are moving, but that doesn’t get to happen very often.  The sideways facing treadmills turned out to be a “heck no”.

Bruce did not enjoy Pilates, I did.  Bruce liked the opera style production way more than I did.

The shore excursion presentation and game show weren’t great, and we aren’t very good at music trivia.  The comedian was middle of the road.

But the whale presentation by the naturalist was fabulous and the talk about a 51 day kayak  trip of our route was interesting.

The afternoon tea was meh, we found decent but not great espresso at the international café, and we had all 3 meals at the buffet.  Enjoyed a normally $17 ice cream sundae for dessert.

This photo is our whale watching portion of the day, scanning the desolate and wet landscape for bubble rings and blows from the indoor pool area.  There are three spots along the cruise where we are mostly likely to see whales, struck out on the first one.
