Day 8, Mon. 9/26/11 at sea

We're settling into a routine on sea days: stretch classes at 7:30 am and 5:00 pm, my Bootcamp (I'm keeping up with about 70% of it!), Geneology lecture for Pat, swimming (today we tried out the thalleotherapy pool), breakfast and lunch with Pat's friends, dinner with new friends and lots of walks from deck 2 where we live to deck 10 where we find the pool, the gym, and the cafe.

We are sailing through a storm area which gave us beautiful light show last night and periods of showers today --makes a good environment for reading.

Dinner was with two British couples, one living Fremont CA and the other in the Canary Islands, and another couple from Sacramento CA - all retired. Frankly, we found the group kind of boring - stereotypical wealthy people who don't seem to do much but take care of their house and gardens and travel. One of the couples have been on 40 cruises!

Evening entertainment was Kimika, a unique couple from Britain. He is a skilled guitar player, she a great singer and comedienne. Together they combined great music and lots of laughs- so good for one's health!

Tomorrow we're up early for a day in Costa Rica.
