A day at Sea


Today is Sunday and it is our day at sea as we sail to Juneau. We started the day with an interdenominational service then we went our separate ways to explore different opportunities. Kaye and I went to a photography class and to a history talk about Juneau and Skagway which will be our first two stops along the inside passage. Dick and Jerry went to the longest drive competition and then sat and had a cup of coffee with an ocean view. Jerry’s drive was 240 yards. The winner was 268 yards. Not too bad, Jerry.

After lunch, we heard a naturalist talk about Alaska and the wildlife. It was very interesting and helped us prepare for our first port in Alaska. I took a short nap while Jerry played in the first heat of the Ryder’s Cup (an unusual putt-putt with par 3s, 4s and 5s). The wind was quite strong so he got robbed a couple of times. After my nap, Kaye and I went to afternoon high tea. Just what we needed more food! Jerry and I have just got back from a walk around the ship. We have now been at sea 24 hours. Tonight is our first formal night.
