Sea days are some of our favorite times aboard ship. There’s no place you have to be at any specific time, and you can just do as you please. Some days that means a lot of lectures, trivia, or port information. And sometimes it just means taking a nap or watching a movie or lingering over a nice meal with new friends.
We’ve had two sea days since Thailand, and thus far we’ve attended five trivia events (winning one and a bottle of champagne), gone to one lecture on Picasso, watched three port lectures since we’ve not been to these ports, attended two production shows, met a lot of wonderful people at lunches and dinners and generally relaxed. We’ve seen a bit of news about Brexit votes and university admission scandals.
Time changes have been almost a daily occurrence as we sail west, but on some days it is a half hour, others an hour. And we hear Kathmandu time zone is yet another 15 minutes difference. We’re only on that for a short bit, so ship time is skipping it altogether.
Today finds us on Sri Lanka Time, which is one of the half-hour-off zones. So when it’s 6:35 pm in Albuquerque, it is 6:05 am the next morning in Sri Lanka. According to my pill box it’s Thursday, and my now multi-lingual, French and English watch agrees.
