Bermuda – One Day Out

    We had the time change last night and that meant that we did not get up very fast this morning. |In fact we had little time for breakfast. We grabbed something light at the International cafe and headed to Zumba class. Having skipped yesterday some of aches were gone. They have 4 different instructors on board so there is lots of different music and routines. We skipped the cooking routine so we could work out our tours. Sine we decided to do one more (courtesy of Princess) we had booked something yesterday but by today decided that we did not want it. We put ourselves on a wait list for 2 tours that we wanted to take as well as booking another tour just in case we do not get on the castle tours. In any case, we will be doing an all day tour in Liverpool. We are back to doing Holyhead on our own.
    I did catch most of the talk on the early days of Chrysler and how many companies came to be the present corporation. The talk went all the way through the mini-van. That talk was quickly followed by the talk on the end of the dinosaurs. Although I knew most of the story, there were many interesting details that came to light. I left that to go to the line dancing class. I must admit that it is somewhat better than other cruises. We did a version of the Watermelon Crawl and Sweet Home Alabama. Judy even did the Cotton Eye Joe which she hates. I was late so I missed being in the line. Another Zumba lesson followed. The instructor this afternoon did not seem to be as hard as some of the others. We even did a routine to Proud Mary which had some semblance to the one Judy does in Florida. Then it was rest time and an in room movie.

    After a stop for pre dinner nibbles, we took in the entertainment, a very good classical piano player. After another fine meal, we were on the 17th deck to go star gazing. It was a very clear night with few clouds. The moon was absolutely bright! It was hard to follow the explanation we did have earphones provided. The highlight was a bright meteor went across the sky. I do not know how Princess arranged it but it was worth the time on deck. Bermuda tomorrow!
