We’re still running dark until tomorrow -- we are passing Yemen on the left side, on our way to Oman. There’s a bit of a swell and chop on the water so that the ship is rolling side to side just a little bit….feels like being rocked. Watched a bunch of dolphins playing in the waves alongside the ship -- cute. It is very difficult not to attribute human emotions to them because they certainly look joyful and playful.
Finally got around to playing Bingo -- got close to winning but that’s all, just close. Finished another book and watched a big parade (sort of tiki meets mardi gras theme) that wound itself up and down the inside promenade deck, which is on deck 5 and runs the length of the ship and has an open area above it about 4 stories high (all the inside cabins on those decks have a window that looks down onto the promenade). The promenade has several shops, a café, a Ben & Jerry’s counter, a Starbucks, a pub (the Pig & Whistle, which is always crowded with Brits and Aussies), a sports bar, and the main guest services desk and at night there are several places where live music is played. My sister and I are finally beginning to feel like we are seriously de-stressing.
