At Sea – Transatlantic Crossing Day 5

Today we woke up late from the previous nights birthday “celebrating”. The wind had picked up, but at least it was somewhat sunny. According to the noon weather report from the bridge, the winds today are blowing about 30-35 knots.  However, the seas are not that bad.  The water temperature is now at about 53 degrees, and today’s high is supposed to be in the low 50’s.

It is nice to have the glass covered pool on the Sun Deck, towards the middle of the ship, and also nice that it is no longer empty due to maintenance. It is a comfortable place to sit out of the cool and windy weather.

We walked around the ship and also played some cards in the afternoon before heading out to meet up with Ruthe and Brian in the Atrium area.

We sat around chatting with them before Stephanie and I went for Vigil Mass at 5:30 in the Explorer’s Lounge. We then got back together with our friends for drinks before we all headed in to get ready for dinner.

After dinner, everyone met at the Explorer’s Lounge to listen to music. Later on, we all went to the Skywalker’s Nightclub for dancing.
