Though that was our mentality, we actually did quite a bit today. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, and ice cream.
We also went to an excursion presentation to get some ideas for our other ports, we attended a presentation on amber to learn about amber (the Baltic is where most amber is produced), we also attended presentations on Russian crafts and the recommended shopping areas. Each of these presentations had raffles or guessing games. The crafts presentation had us guess the number of dolls inside the foot-and-a-half-tall Russian stacking doll (I can't spell the Russian name for these). The answer was 30, which was far from what we had guessed. Myra was closest with 26. But I won the raffle for the amber drawing :) I got an rough emerald heart pendent. I don't care much for the heart shape, but I do like winning :)
We played a game of Bingo with our free Bingo card. If it weren't free we wouldn't have done it. Then we did trivia, where we scored a great 9/20. Then we went to dinner, where Myra repeated her 5 appetizer and one entree feat from the night before. Afterwards, Myra and I retired to the room and Rich went to the evening performance. Then we went swimming and hot tubbing and went to bed satisfied.

Wow, glad to finally hear from you. Sounds like you are having a GREAT trip. We miss you! You are now officially 1 week away from home...how time flies. It's been raining, with an odd non raining day. ARGH!
ReplyDeleteAni started her first day at COMPanion, and did well.
I'm off to Costco so the family doesn't starve....or risk starvation.
I'm so happy to hear how much you are doing on board. It sounds like the perfect mix of activities and entertainment. Good for you, Mia to win, and you, Myra for picking all those appetizers, then sticking with it! We are enjoying our last meal (lamb steaks & vegies) with Bill and Cherry before they leave tomorrow. Love you! Mom
