First Day Activities

Our guest lecturer today was John Maxtone-Graham, born 1930.

He is a maritime historian who has written many books. The lecture

was excellent. I’m looking forward to hearing more. This is an ideal

audience for him. There are many people aboard who have sailed

much more than us, having taken one or more world cruises.

I left early to get to line dancing. (Again two things I want to do

and they either or at the same time or overlap). We had a huge crowd.

I don’t know how many will make it to the end of the cruise.

Tonight was the Captain’s cocktail party with the champagne waterfall.

What a waste of champagne.
