Friday 18 April 2008

Time for the noon report. If the date of the message is earlier than about 3 pm it is because we lost another hour last night and will do the same tonight. By the time we finish the late show and then visit the venues, we seem to never get to bed. Then we loose an hour. No wonder we don't get up early in the morning.
Yesterday afternoon was spent just laying in the sun as it was a great day. Ma managed to fall asleep and get a very nice tan/burn while doing so. I was busy here in the computer room and then could not find her as she had moved so I went off to hear a singer.
Last night we went to a painting demonstration and they insisted on serving wine to us again. They must figure that we will buy on of those $20,000 pieces. Ma of course has found one that she likes but it is out of our price range! We also had the special order gnocchi las tnight and then discovered that it was on the menu at the Caribe Cafe for lunch. It was Italian lunch with about 10 different types of pasta. Very good.
Yesterday we answered the question of the day and the ma's card was pulled so she gets a free cocktail! They have changed how they distribute winner's prizes from previous cruises. So tonight we may try the cocktail or go to the Art Gallery party - again! Tonight is also salso night in the Fusion Club and since we have been to the lessons (again today) we feel that we might be able to actually do the dance. Besides who will see! Line dancing class was a bit of a bust as the instrucor was a new one (again). SOmeone from the class actually ended up teaching a new dance and that was better than what the cruise staff did!
Oh the noon position puts us just over half way to Maderia. We get there on Monday afternoon. So the weekend has started. I guess we will take it easy! Time to go back to the auction to see if we can win something!
