A day at sea - October 14

Today we’re sailing the Atlantic headed to Ponta Delgada in the Azores. This morning we had light rain which cleared off around lunchtime. The seas were very calm and the temperature mild. In the afternoon we continued our Scrabble tournament. We tried playing outside in the Sanctuary, a place with wonderful lounge chairs and soothing music. Unfortunately we were nearly blown away so we had to move indoors. Tonight was our second formal night and we noticed that people on the whole get very dressed up on this cruise. It’s nice to see everyone decked out!

All in all it’s been an uneventful but relaxing day. Below is a pretty good shot of a gull taken from our balcony.
