July 28 - Day at Sea

Today was a typical day at sea. I got my hair done, went to "Cheers with the Officers", and had lunch with the Ladies at Izumis, worked on my blog, had cocktails, went to dinner and then the show and made an early night of it.
So I will show you some towel animals

Turtle, 

I think a Giraffe,

April 7 - Forbidden City, Beijing, China

Image
After 40 years, I finally made it to China! And I'm going to walk on the Great Wall. Wohoo! But first we are going to The Forbidden City. We ported in Tianjin, and were greeted with a heartfelt welcome from the Chinese government.  They provided entertainment, including the revered Dragon Dance (the dancers in blue), which I caught on video.  And to no surprise and they caught everything on CCTV.  As I was watching the entertainment, the drone was literally in my face. And later when I headed out on the excursion, the film crew followed me. If you see me, please forward me the link.  It was quite smoggy in Tianjin, so my pictures may be a little blurry. We found out later that the Chinese government moved all smog producing factories out of Beijing and into Tianjin, to clean up the air for the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics. It was a 3+ hour drive to Beijing. We were lucky that we didn't arrive yesterday as it was a day a remembrance. It is a day when all Chinese visit...

March 5 - Bay of Islands, New Zealand

Image
Our 2nd port in New Zealand was the Bays of Islands. It's an area of Northern New Zealand and made up of 144 islands. I headed out on an excursion that took us to The Kawiti Marea Caves, also know as Waiomio Glowworm Cave. They are caves, which are lit up by glowworms. Their bioluminescence attracts the insects they feed on. The hungrier they are the brighter they are. Here are some pics outside the cave, I was the lantern girl. We couldn't take any pictures inside. I can assure you it was a unique and awesome experience. Besides the glow worms, you could see the wonderful stalactite and stalagmite formations.   Here are some unauthorized pictures of the caves and glowworms                   We then passed the Waitangi grounds in Paihia, where the first signatures where penned on the Treaty of Waitangi. It is New Zealand's founding document and an agreement made in 1840 between representatives of the British Crown and (ultimate...

February 2 - Ground Hog Day & Build a Boat

Image
It's Ground Hog Day, so of course I went to see the movie with the same name. I finally got my hair done. It's a little flat, I'll fluff it up tomorrow. Then it was time for the 'Build a Boat' Competition. The boats could be constructed from any materials you could find. They were only allowed to have wind and water propulsion. They launched from one side of the pool and had to make it over to the other side. I did not participate....this time. This one got 3rd Place.           Awww, this one didn't make it.           Awww, neither did this one.                This one got 2nd Place.                😞, didn't make it.         This one used a water propulsion system, but it didn't make it.                     This was the winner. Of course it was Engineer ...
