At Sea

Sunny,
80s
We
got up early to get padded lounge chairs poolside Deck 15 midship/the movie
screen area ---that’s the trick and at least we sit in ours. Grabbed a quick
pastry and coffee to go and I was all set for hours. Finished Bad
Love, on to A Painted House by John Grisham—set in cotton field country in
Arkansas so far. I can read no matter what the distraction. This morning was
loud loud rooting for football games in England as well as a very large group
of talkative women waiting in line for the buffet. We have never seen such
lines, but I think it because this group has seminars throughout the day with
limited time to eat.
By
1 p.m. the sun was almost fully on me and the Bears/Patriots game was starting
so I got some pizza and returned to our room to pack. For some reason, this task was not so
difficult—maybe because Tim was not there????
Now
I’m back in the Piazza on Deck 5 next to a window watching the ocean wave
frothingly by and listening to guitar melodies by Toby Reilly. He has a sort of
Bob Dylan sound.
I
know football is the prime focus on West 27th Street, along with
good food. Not sure what’s happening in Kiantone—perhaps nature walks and
football too. We miss our family and by Thursday I hope to see them all! The
purpose of this October trip was perfect eyes and we accomplished that with
lots of fun thrown in. We have had a good time, but we are ready for home.
Tomorrow
we are scheduled to disembark about 8:30 a.m. We will drive back to Fort Myers
to stay with Tom and Carol one last night. I have an appointment with Dr.
Pascucci on Tuesday morning for one last check up. Immediately after that we
begin our trek home.
