Today is a day at sea, a thankful rest time after five long days in a row visiting different ports. We woke up to a gray, foggy day with the wind blowing at 25 knots. The seas were pretty rough, but since we are going in the direction of the wind and seas, it was not too bad, especially the wind outside on the decks.
We took it easy today, played putt-putt, walked around the ship, and just rested. Everyone else seemed tired too; it was really crowded at breakfast even though we went at 9:45 am. Everyone must have slept in like we did. We went to see a movie in the late afternoon. Then the sun decided to come out a little through the haze, so we sat on the deck at the pool. After dinner, at about 9:00 pm, we transited the Straits of Gibraltar. We could see the outline of Gibraltar against the lights from the cities in the background. It would have been nice to see it during the daytime, but it was still interesting to see Gibraltar on one side and Morocco on the other. Next stop tomorrow is Cadiz, Spain.
