The first of four sea days as we sail to Hawaii, the seas are calm but it is raining.
Fri. Nov. 13
Today brought sunshine and warm temps and calm seas.. How lucky we have been for 22 days. We went to the covered pool right after breakfast because the other pool was being readied for the Equator ceremony. We crossed the Equator back to the northern hemisphere at 3;00 today. The pics are of King Neptune and his queen and the crowd around the pool. We had to watch it on the big screen because of the huge crowd.
The ritual was funny as King Neptune hazed some first time crossers. Great weather for it.

Woke up to this glorious sunrise. The pics are in order as the sunrise unfolded.
Saw the twin sons of Ricky Nelson perform tonight in a tribute to their dad. They are known as the band Nelson. They have normal hair now :) They sang their dad's hits and showed video of the Nelson family right back to Ozzie and Harriet. It was a very good show. They are performing again tomorrow night but this time with their music. This should be very interesting.

Rough day at sea but sunny. Went to a culinary demonstration by the head Chef of the fleet. We already have his book from a previous cruise. Then we listened to a lecture on Pearl Harbor. Before dinner we went to another concert by Nelson, this time with their own music. They sure don't look like they did in the 90's
Nelson looks a lot better now. Their own music was pretty good. Think you probably might have been able to tolerate it at least. :) I can't believe you got a picture with Rock Stars from the late 80s early 90s!!! NELSON!?! WOW! LOL
ReplyDeleteHi! Nice blog! I'm glad you're having fun. Also, I'm pleasantly surprised that the cruiseline holds the equator ceremony. I thought that was only a Navy thing.
ReplyDeleteIt's nowhere NEAR what the Navy one is like...THAT I can guarantee you!!! LOL
ReplyDeleteI was such a big fan of Nelson in the late 80's!
