Hi All! We had a glorious sea day today. Got to sleep in, watch NFL Football, get educated, and catch an early glimpse of Halloween. Our kinda day! We started off on the downer side watching our Panthers struggle and lose to the Green Bay Packers. It’s weird watching Thursday night football on a Friday morning (while floating thru the East China Sea)!
As to education we went to the sessions on our upcoming South Korea ports of Seoul, Busan, and JeJu Island. They all sound like interesting places to visit! We then went to see all the Halloween pumpkins the staff had carved. They were so creative with their carvings. It will be interesting what the ship actually does on Halloween!
We went to dinner in the main dining room and it was dressy night so the menu gets an upgrade. For my appetizer I had the Escargot, for my main I had the Antarctic Queen fish and for my dessert I had the Flourless Chocolate Cake. Love the dressy night menu and everything was once again Dee-licious!
After dinner we went to the show which was the magician/illusionist from the other night, Sunny Chen. He really is amazing with the tricks he pulls off! I wish one day a magician would tell us how they do all those tricks! After the show we followed the routine we love which is listening to Kelly play piano!
Tomorrow we are docked in Incheon, South Korea, which is the gateway to Seoul, the capital city. Can’t wait to experience it but have to be honest and say we’re getting a little too close to that country to the North of us!!
PS: We got back to our room and had a fun towel animal and this time we knew it! Elephant!!
