Sea Day

Today was one of the few sea days we are going to have this month, we have five ports days in a row starting tomorrow. It’s going to be a busy month. I was up early as we were pulling out of port around 7:00am this morning after our overnight in Agadir. The storms and winds finally died down around midnight last night and the captain announced he was happy we had opted to stay in port like we did. There was a beautiful double rainbow as we were pulling out this morning as Agadir said goodbye to us. I went and had breakfast this morning at the Neptune Lounge and I let Megan sleep in. I headed to Project Linus after and Megan came and met me there later in the morning. We spent about two hours working on our projects today. Knowing our sea days are already limited Marty is making sure everyone has all the supplies they need because Project Linus is not set up on port days. We have enough yarn to finish our current projects and a one more so we’re good to go. After Project Linus Megan went to tutoring and I went to acupuncture. We met back at the cabin around 2:30pm and then headed to the Lido poolside for an ice cream social party. They had the lido area all decorated, had drink specials like brandy Alexander and Mud slides and had an ice cream area set up with every topping you could imagine. The line lasted almost an hour with passengers coming through to make their own sundaes (some had two). I did not have any but we enjoyed sitting and watching. After the social we headed home to get ready for dinner. Tonight we had dinner in the Main Dining room at our normal time and place and had Catalin, the shopping concierge from the Effy Shop as our guest this evening. His time on the ship is coming to an end in a couple of days and we wanted to have a chance to say goodbye. There is going to be a staff and passenger turn over when we conclude the third segment of the world cruise (there were four) in Amsterdam as well. The majority of the passengers were/are on for the entire duration but there is about 50 passengers that rotate throughout the cruise. So if you ever want to do a part of the world cruise know that is an option for you. My understanding that on next years World Cruise they are breaking it into nine different segments to make it easier for travelers who can not be away for long periods of time. After dinner we took a walk around the ship, walked through the shops, and then headed home. We placed our room service order for breakfast tomorrow with a 6am delivery time. We have a 7:15am meeting time for our excursion tomorrow morning. This will be our longest excursion (not counting the safari) of this trip. 10.5 hours long as we will travel all around Casablanca, Morocco. I am excited to see all the new sights and to experience new and exciting things. I will be sure to take lots of phots and share my adventures with you as always. Have a wonderful nights rest and stay safe all!! Hugs.
