So now we begin our favorite part of a transatlantic cruise - relaxing days at sea. Lots of activities on the ship ranging from lectures about the sea to cooking classes, card games, sunbathing, reading, wine tasting, putting tournaments, Bingo....you get the picture. Something for every taste! We really are enjoying the Spa terrace at the front of the 14th deck with double Lounges, peaceful music and a Tallassotherapy pool. We have access since we are in a Concierge Class cabin. Spent a good part of our first two sea days there! We've also worked at taking care of at least a few of the calories we seem to ingest all day by going to the gym and putting in our miles on the treadmill. So far, no weight gain even after 5 days in Paris, 2 in Barcelona and continuous feeding since we boarded the ship on the 15th! And that included a sumptuous brunch today!
Met a very nice couple from Arizona at Happy Hour at the Martinis Bar yesterday and had breakfast with them today! Making new friends is a fun part of cruising and we keep meeting such interesting people.
Enjoyed a lecture this afternoon by a geologist about projected ocean conditions during the 21 st century! Just the impact of the increased population projections was enough to give me pause!
Off to dinner at the Polo Grill tonight with a review tomorrow! Forgot to say that we did had turkey with the trimmings last night...nice try but really missed a real home made dinner and we were so grateful that our family indulged our wanderlust by coming for an early T Day before we left for Paris!
