At Sea - Wed 01/29 - Day 26
I woke up at 8 and it was 48 degrees with 75% humidity. It was another rocking night and it continues todaay. I went to breakfast at 9 and went back to the cabin at 9:45. I caught up on the news and read until 11:40 when I went to trivia. It was a really hard set of questions for me today as I only got 4 correct out of 15 and I only had answers for 8. I went back to the cabin and tried to file for an extension for my taxes, but had problems with getting an email from them. I went to play bingo, but it was an error in the program. I finally got my email to work on the computer but the speed is extremely slow and things keep timing out. They finally took the internet down about 5 and say they are working on it. I went to the Crow's Nest at 6:30 and talked with Don, Jim & Cathy, Martha and Sue. At dinner, we had a special menu "The Heroic Age of Exploration Commemorative Dinner. The dessert I had was Angels On Gliders. It was the best chocolate I have tasted in quite some time. On Christmas day 1912, veteran explorer and photographer Frank Hurley prepared and named a dessert of a chocolate square and one raisin on top for their celebration dinner while holed up in a tent with two companions while on the way back from reaching the Magnetic South Pole. After dinner, I returned to the cabin to get a good night's sleep before we get started on our 4 days of cruising Antarctica. Not sure what the towel animal is supposed to be. I went to bed at 9:30.
