December 26, 2010

Today is a Jekyll & Hyde day for my morning walk. The Promenade Deck is open finally. The seas are a little choppy, but the big swells have diminished, so the ride is actually smoother. One side of the ship seems to be overcast and you can see rain squalls a few miles away. The other side is sunny and warm, and I even see the first bird since leaving Los Angeles. Walking another lap, I see a fantastic rainbow and take some pictures. The rainbow at times was single and then double and I could see both ends, but alas, no pot of gold.
At 10am we listen to a speaker discussing the Middle East, focusing on Iran going nuclear, and the concerns of other middle eastern countries and of course Israel. It’s a very complex problem.
I eased up on lunch and had a Captain’s Seafood Basket (calamari, shrimp, cod, clams), butmade up for it with dessert – Chocolate Nemesis Cake.
Claudia had a Monte Cristo sandwich and the Hawaiian Sunset for dessert.Tonight is a French themed dinner (escargot – yes!).
