November 4 - Still at sea

Our first sign of life since the Azores
The trike garage!

Today was a little warmer and more sunny. It was also almost absolutely calm this morning. From our balcony first thing this morning we saw the becalmed sailboat in the photo. This was our first sign of other life since we left the Azores. It’s always amazing that we traverse this ocean without seeing other ships. Since the nice weather continued we decided to try the Sanctuary this afternoon. The Sanctuary is all the way forward on deck 17. It’s shaded and has the most comfortable loungers. It’s easy to fall asleep up there. We both read for awhile and then played a game of Scrabble.

In the late afternoon we went up to Skywalkers, the lounge perched all the way up and aft. The view from there is spectacular. As we looked out the windows we noticed the kids deck below us and saw the “trike garage.” There aren’t many kids on this cruise but the trikes were lined up and parked in anticipation of the Caribbean and holiday cruise season coming up.
