The water is getting rough and the temperature is dropping. This is the first day I have felt any motion on the ship. It really has been calm seas the entire trip.
Rough seas call for extra time in the gym. The rolling of the ship can really be dangerous when using heavy weights. We did weights and then finished on the treadmill. My legs feel good.
Lunch seemed packed. I’m not sure why as there wasn’t anyway to take any new passengers aboard. The ice cream station was closed but maybe some other food item created the crowd.

There were 30 questions and we scored a 19. Third place.
We enjoyed relaxing after lunch. All of the ports and tours can get overwhelming, especially when they are tender ports. One more sea day and then two tender ports in Greenland. We have nothing planned as yet. Options are very limited. I guess I am surprised that people actually live on Greenland. Roughly 56,000 people make a home on Greenland.
We finished the evening listening to the house band at the Ocean Bar. They are really a very good group and we enjoy listening to them.
How is your back handling the boat movements??
You better have gotten the “raston” question correct.
Love these Trivia questions…we like playing along from our living room.
