Early November 6 - Let’s Dance!

It’s very late but I had to write something else.  We played trivia late this afternoon and once again we won commandingly (the other teams may try to throw us overboard if we keep this up).  Our teammate Jean from Scotland was on fire; I’m the scribe for the team and all I needed to do was write down her answers.  She was fantastic!


Dinner was a ladies’ table with Aimée, the cruise director, and it was a lot of fun.  We celebrated Linda’s birthday with a cake.  After dinner there was a dance party on deck and of course I went.  What a good time we had!  I sat with Olga and Carlos and Olga and I did a lot of dancing.  It was hot and muggy, but then it is the Caribbean.  Just as the party was winding down, it started sprinkling.  The weather gods have been pretty good for us so far so I can’t complain.  I heard though that tomorrow our luck may end because the weather forecast for our stop in San Juan is rain, rain, rain.  Too bad; I was going to go ashore and get a cab to take me to the old forts on the north coast of old San Juan.  The shoreline there is beautiful and I wanted to take some photos. Maybe next time.

I'm not in the photo.  Maybe next time.


There is something great about being on a ship on a day like today.  It’s a pretty momentous day in the US and if we don’t want to think about it, we don’t have to.  We are in a world of our own out here, and it’s absolutely wonderful!  Something else – maybe I’ll stop getting text messages about election stuff and spam calls.  Yes, I get spam calls out here in the ocean.  At least they haven’t come in the middle of the night!  More tomorrow.

I hope the rain held off for San Juan!
