On the Move Again!!, Darn computers!!

 Even without the rocking of the ocean I slept very well. Apparently the ship sailed around eleven o'clock. We found out that the problem was a glich in the computer soft wear.

We had breakfast in the dining room and it was almost Canadian table. One couple was from Michigan. 

After breakfast we separated and I did a few errands. I went to see one of the Medalion navigators to find out a bit about the app.

Then I went to the Photo department to see if they could help with the camera downloading problem.

Then I downloaded out account statement to see if it was correct and what our balance was.

Then I stopped and signed the condolance book for Queen Elizabeth.

Next I checked out one of the shops and found a VERY NICE almost formal top. Regular price $109.99 on sale for $29.75. It fit and I really like it.

Then I checked with the outlet that sells alcohol to find out what rum they had on board. I don't know why but there are 2 Xmas trees in one of the shops. They are nicely decorated.






I returned to the room, left my parcel and got ready to go to the Cruise Critic gathering. There was a good sized group of travellers and the officers were well represented..The captain explained that because of the delay in departing the schedule of ports would change. Tomorrow will be a second sea day and then we would stop at Juneau and then Skagway. Icy Strait Point would be missed. There are 1500 passengers on board , a little more than half capacity.







Next we headed to the DaVinci dining room for lunch. This time it was a completely Canadian table. It was a table for six with a window view. The nicest table yet. There was a couple from Vancouver and a couple from Calgary.

As usual lunch was very tasty and we had a great time visiting. Lunch took over an hour and a half so we headed back here to have a little nap.

Our appetizers just arrived. This is the first formal night. We will finish the bottle of champagne that we began last evening.

Dinner is at 5 instead of 6 which will be good because we will want to go to the production show at 7:30 and it usually takes at least 2 hours to have dinner.

We sailed the inside passage all day and it was a bit cool to say the least. The water was very calm and the scenery was grand. This is indeed a beautiful part of the world. The sun peeked out about an hour ago but even with the sun it is chilly.
