SEA DAY--EASTERLY COURSE IN SLIGHT SEAS

Overcast skies and 79 F

We are headed east toward Grenada today. The skies are overcast and it may rain. I am signed up for two computer classes.

I won a drink of the day on the morning TV show hosted by Billy London, the cruise director. TK won one on Tuesday, who is the captain? (Captain Roger Bilton of Sussex, England). The drink of the day is usually about $7, so we hope we will get four non-alcoholic drinks. The question was “How do you know which direction the elevator is going if you have your back to the elevator door.” The answer is: there is one ping for up and two for down (now I might have that confused-will check again). I never noticed before. By the way, today’s drink of the day is Dirty Banana—does that even sound good?

My two computer classes, Photoshop Elements Layers and Effects and Clone Tool Tips, were really informative. I can now make a cruise ship in the Caribbean look like it’s in Glacier Bay, Alaska. I can also remove my wrinkles (in photos only). Handy tricks if anyone asks! My son R will be impressed!

Today was English Pub luncheon in the Painted Desert restaurant. The fish and chips were very good.

We had dinner in the Horizon Court—we did dress formally, but had the German Biergarten buffet, weiner schnitzel, spaetzle, red cabbage, and German potato salad.

Movie unter der stars: Knight and Day with Tom Cruise, Cameron Diaz, and Marc Blucas (from Erie and I worked with his mother). It was a very cute movie and I love Tom Cruise. During the final credits it started to rain, so we were lucky.
