DAY 135---AT SEA IN THE ATLANTIC OCEAN OFF THE WESTERN SAHARA

 

        This is our position at noon today.  There are some high clouds but the winds have decreased and the ocean is much smoother now.  It is a very pleasant 72 degrees outside.

LAST EVENING

                                               We both enjoyed this cauliflower bisque. 

                                                        I also had this pan seared fole gras.

                   Rebecca had black pepper beef stir fry and I had panko coated shrimp.

                                         My dessert was this peanut butter crunch bar.

TODAY

        This morning at 10:00 until 10:35 they had what Regent calls "the country fair".  Each department on the ship sets up games booths for guests to play.  If you win you get a ticket which will be entered afterwards for drawings for prizes.  Passengers have a great time but I know the crew has an even better time getting out on the pool deck and having some fun.  A break from their working!  Just wish we could see their smiling and laughing faces as they still have to wear masks.

                                              Both sides of the pool deck had game booths.

                             The housekeeping department seemed to be having the most fun.

                                        Some of the ship's orchestra were playing some tunes.

        After lunch we watched the movie, "Indiana Jones The Last Crusade".  It's been a long time since we saw it last.  Towards the end there is a scene in Petra (Jordan) where we have been twice now and saw the magnificent temple facade, "The Treasury".

        They are distributing everyone's passports this afternoon which they have been holding for some previous port clearances.  We won't be needing them now until we disembark in Barcelona.  

        There is another pre-dinner show at 6pm featuring the "Spontaneous Duo".  Boogie & Kasia play the lounges mostly after dinner and have been on the whole world cruise.  A lot of folks like them but not us so we will not be going to their show.

        Cocktails in Mariner Lounge as usual before dinner in Compass Rose.  We have made a special Mexican dinner order for tonight which includes:  guacamole, chips, salsa, sour cream, chicken enchiladas, refried beans, and Spanish rice.  Here is the regular CR menu.

        The after dinner show at 9:30 in the theater is featuring the production cast in "Divos & Divas".  We shall be in our usual front row seats for it.

        We will be setting our clocks up another hour tonight as we did last night.  We should then be on the Canary Island's time.  Tomorrow will be another day at sea.
