COLD Skagway

June 12th/2012 We had breakfast in the dining room and we ate with 2 couples who were part of a group of 57 people from New York State. They were interesting to visit with. Today we were in Skagway and it was very cold and the wind was blowing a gale. We decided that we had been to Skagway 5 times before and we really didn’t need to get that cold today. We spent a very quiet day, napping and exploring the ship again. When walking around the ship we came to one of the hot tubs and there were 2 people in it. The bravest people on the ship. It might have been nice while in there but I sure wouldn’t want to be them getting out. For lunch I went to the Trident Grill and got each of us a hot dog. This time I found the onions and the relish. We decide to go to Skywalkers,( which is the night club on deck 16) for the Elite reception since the special drink was the port which Ken enjoys so much. I had another Strawberry Daiquiri. They are soooooooooo good. We went downstairs to supper and as usual we had a grand time. After super we went with Wayne and Carol to the place where they were taking pictures of people in the old time costumes. Carol didn’t like the ones we had taken last week. After that we went to the Princess Theatre for the production show. It was “Do You Wanna Dance?” and as usual it was fantastic. I cannot believe their energy. Next we stood by Crooners to take in the Name That Tune trivia. Barbara and Gordon ended up there also. We were surprised by what we knew and what we didn’t know. Barbara and I entered the guess the weight of the diamond contest and Ken and I went for our night cap as usual. We were on our way back to our room when we came across the display of gold chains and Ken got one. Finally it was off to bed. In spite of not going ashore and not really doing anything we had a busy day.
