Day 122

at Sea

We are on our way across the Atlantic Ocean. The crossing looks like it will very smooth and we are going top speed to get to San Juan. The Captain says we will probably arrive one hour early.

I did the promenade deck and Terri did the treadmill. Great view and nice weather on the deck.

Team trivia. Which country had the most VCRs in 1990? (Japan) Who was on the cover of Time magazine the most times? FDR, Churchill, Stalin (Stalin) Who won an Oscar for best supporting actress in the Miracle Worker? (Patty Duke) Which fabric was used on the seats of the Gremlin in 1973?

After trivia was a Kentucky Derby event. 5 HAL employees dressed in costume with a horse on a stick. Kimberley rolled a die and the horses moved that many places. All of the passengers could “vote” for their favorite and the winners would receive a complimentary drink. It was hilarious!

There was also a Derby Hat competition. There were about ten folks that created hats. Some brought them from home and they were nice but the winner of the hat competition was a woman that wore a HAL duffle bag on her head with decorations on it. The winner was decided by the amount of applause.

We had dinner in the Pinnacle with Joe and Ann. We talked about future cruises and meeting up in Michigan this summer.

The evening entertainment was a performance by the Flyrights.

Another great performance of Motown tunes!
