Today we were at sea all day. Mostly Dawn and I sat on the deck and read. Dawn hid under the canopy in the morning, where I finally told her we would be laying in the sun! So we ate Lunch and went back out on the deck in the sun. Dawn dragged me to [...]
We took some pictures on the deck at night and enjoyed a little walk after dinner. But we were so tired from traveling, that we hit the library of course, especially to get our bags under the weight limit I had to leave 3 hardback books at home, so much for finishing my Blue Ocean [...]
