Sea day 3 (tues)

April 21, 2009 Tuesday
This is the Third of our sea days. It was still pretty windy all day long. At least we had some sunshine today. The water was the color of my truck, that deep water blue. Today has been a day of total sloth. Slept in a bit late, had some breakfast and napped again……..Nice. WE then went up to the spa for a few hours. After spending time in the thermal pool and heated stone beds we ventured out poolside to get a little sun. The sun was nice and warm but the breeze was still chilly.
After sitting in the 53 degree temperature we went back into the spa for a nice hot sauna and a quick dip in the thermal pool.
We meet some people for drinks in the bliss lounge once again tonight. Diner was the La Cucina Italian restaurant. We started with a nice anti pasta plate for the rolling cart. We then had fried calamari. For the main course we had an osso bucco with wild rice risotto. We split a portion of pasta with oil, garlic and pepper flakes. Of course Chris once again had 2 deserts. We also drank almost an entire 1.5L of wine. There is about a glass left.
After diner we went to the spinnaker lounge for a late night cabaret performance by the chocolate goddess of love.
We have now traveled 1406 miles from New York. The wave heights are 8-9 feet. It is a pretty steady roll. Not rocky. It is now about 1245am with the new time change.
