First full day at sea

Sunday April 19, 2009
Today was a day of relaxation. I really do not understand how these sea days go by so fast. Right now it is about 1030 pm. We have traveled 625 miles from New York. There are about 1713 more to go before our next port. The outside air temperature is 49. Over all it was a very grey day, with a few sprinkles here and there. The day started off with very smooth seas, but as the day went on we started getting some white caps. A bit rocky but not too bad. Don’t forget to check the link above to see the live web cam. It is also a very different crowd than last year much more subdued. It appears as if many more people came with larger groups.
Started the day with a light breakfast, and then went to the spa for a couple of hours. Instead of doing the buffet for lunch we went to the grand pacific dining room. We have never gone to a dining room for lunch before. Of notable interest was the chilled blueberry soup.
It was then time for a nap.
We then headed out to the stardust theater to see the show “colors”.
For Diner we headed to the Magenta dining room. Service and food were excellent. We started with a tuna tartar, fatosh, Chris had a Cesar salad instead spaghetti cabonara, and Chris also had a side of monk fish. Desert was a chocolate caramel mound as well as a banana split cheese cake for Chris. He may need to buy larger pants when he gets home lol.
We turn the clocks ahead one hour tonight.
