June 18 - Our quiet day on board

Wednesday our ship called on Skagway, but since we have visited Skagway a number of times (including 2 weeks ago), we decided to have a day on board while most of the rest of the went ashore.

We have been sleeping in late most days because our room is nice and dark. This morning was no exception, staying in bed until 8:45. We enjoyed a quiet breakfast in the Lido Market, then a cycle in the thermal spa. After that, we got our computers and caught up on the blog, made phone calls (Mom's birthday was on the 17th and Ellie's is the 18th), and I did my NYT puzzles.

We ate lunch in the Lido - I finally got to try shrimp crackers (love them). I worked on the blog more in the afternoon and we eventually got ready for dinner in the dining room. Since we hadn't taken any pictures during the day, we got one of us at dinner, and then another from the back of the boat as we sailed away from Skagway as the sun started to go down.



After dinner, we enjoyed the premier of a new dance show in the main theater; it was based on ballroom or pairs dancing. The dancers brought a lot of energy to it - we sat on the front row and we could see the sweat pouring off the male dancers especially. We strolled around the ship some, then turned in.
