Huge rainstorm off to starboard completely blocked what might have been a nice sunrise. Actually any sunrise at sea seen from the balcony of D205 is not just a nice sunrise but a great sunrise. It was the International Cafe again for breakfast and coffee, but this time we managed to avoid the Future Cruise kiosk.
Our mini-suite manages to contain 2 flat screen TV's, 2 thermostats, a small refrigerator, a full size couch, small table with chair and 15 switches operating 18 lights. There is a good size area to hang clothes, shelves to store clothes and a safe for valuables. The balcony has 2 chaise lounge with foot rests, small table and a recently refurbished wood railing. The couch opens into a bed and there is some sort of bed that drops down from the overhead, entry to which is by ladder found tucked away with the coat hangers.
Barb finished her first true crime paperback yesterday and just started a new one, while I'm about halfway through what I though was my last e-book. Looking a little more carefully I found an unread copy of Great Expectations, so now alternating between Tom Clancy and Charles Dickens.
Barb skipped lunch today, while I brought an all beef hotdog and beer back to the cabin. I'm getting kinda attached to Blue Moon beer, brewed in Golden, Colorado and served with a slice of orange. It's a suitable substitute for a filtered wheat beer.
Not much in the Princess Patter for today. The "Body Parts Trivia Challenge" could prove interesting and there's a "Remembering the Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" presentation by a fellow passenger. Think I'll pass.
Neither of us are feeling great at the moment. I've got a little tickle in the throat and cough, while Barb is suffering a case of whitecaps and swells. Think we will head down and see what OTC medications are available.
Three days to go.
