Nothing to see but sea...

Quote of the day: “Yesterday two elderly ladies got into an argument in the buffet restaurant. They ended up dueling with walking sticks.”

The seas have calmed, but quite a few people are still suffering with seasickness. So far I’ve been spared… BJ wants to know why there’s water everywhere, and how long it’ll be before we find a tree for him to climb…

The captain has announced that we’re sailing further south than planned, to avoid the worst of the weather, and hopes that the sun will be shining again by tomorrow evening. The result of this is that we’ll be passing the exact position the Titanic went down… lovely… let’s hope someone will be on iceberg watch!

Also heard today that several people got off in Southampton to visit family, and were due to rejoin in Dublin. With missing our stop there, they now have to find their own way to Boston to reboard. Now that would come as a bit of a shock. About now they’re probably poring over the small print of their insurance policies, and possibly buying a few new clothes, as they left their luggage on the ship. Let’s hope they’re making good use of their 6 days off the ship and doing some interesting things!
