This morning we played trivia with one of the couples we played with yesterday and we won the grand prize of Princess coasters. Then we went to the Japanese bath for a soak and steam which was most relaxing. The seas are still making us roll a bit so the giant hot tub was wonderful for floating around in - like being in the womb. Michael says it's not truly like a Japanese bath since the water wasn't painfully hot, but I liked it that way.
After lunch in the buffet Michael went for a nap and I went off to afternoon trivia. Both couples were there this time and we won again with the highest score ever, apparently. It was set up like Jeopardy and we only missed 2 out of 25 questions and got both the Double Jeopardy questions right. One of the questions in the Maps category had a picture of the Big Dipper as the map. We were having a little difficulty until a man in front of us, who wasnt playing, turned around and pointed to his hat. There was the Big Dipper and " Alaska ". Thank you very much, sir. This time the jewelry company Effy was "sponsoring" it so our prize was a scarf and necklace set. We should quit while we're ahead.
There is a wonderful duo called Angelic Dreams Duo who plays in the atrium for a while each day - two Ukranian women who play what look like acoustic violins. They look very strange (the violins, not the women), but sound beautiful. I bought their CD.
Tonight at dinner we had all 6 of us. Dan and Nancy weren't there last night. Turns out they had originally requested a table for 2 and were put with us on Saturday by mistake. Last night they were given a table for 2 in one of the other restaurants, but then decided they'd rather eat with us, so they came back. Awww.
The show was a singer from New Zealand who was very good and then the soprano from last night's show sang a few songs in the atrium. She has a gorgeous operatic voice. We're quite impressed with the talent on board this cruise.
We got another remote today and have no trouble with them conflicting each other. We DO have trouble getting either of them to work well - very temperamental.
Tomorrow is Auckland.
