• HAWAIIAN / South Pacific Dinner -

    March 14, North Pacific Ocean ⋅ 🌧 75 °F

    Today was a day at sea, not surprising. Unfortunately we had to skip KONA, an island we were looking forward to visiting. Although everyone was disappointed, the weather and danger of trying to tender there was much more important and "meant to be" and ended up being a wonderful day onboard. We are traveling pretty much a straight line at 150 degrees SE, at 17 knots all day. We have gone about 295 nautical miles from Honolulu and have about 1850 miles left. The wind is 20 knots with 25-30 gusts and 8-10' swells ... a little rocky onboard today. We have a day of activities: from ukulele; to dancing; to games & sports; to computer classes; and artist workshops; more singing practice; and music everywhere with the piano, the string quartet, afternoon tea and a lecture on Operation Mincemeat and the 2 evening special shows (see separate post). Another busy day relaxing. We had another Hawaiian South Pacific dinner. The photos give you an idea of the creative interesting dishes they made and we tried. I loved the 5 ways they made chicken and some of the salads. The evening was filled with 2 shows (Carson and Irina) and late night FEVER.Read more
