We met up with our new Houston friends, E and D for Wednesday morning's speed puzzle challenge. We crushed the competition by putting a 300-piece puzzle together in 20 minutes, We joked that we could have done another puzzle before the second team finished (and we could have) but we didn't want to show off.
E, Cindy and I celebrating the win with our free drinks. D was off to a whiskey tasting.
When we got back to our room our blanket was folded i to a heart. Cute.
In the afternoon we joined E outside, wrapped in ship-provided blankets, and enjoyed the fresh air. The waves seemed big (to me anyway).
Such a nice lounging space that we only discovered on Tuesday. It's too bad the rooms don't inclde a floor-by-floor map of the ship.
While we were in the lounging area, we were offered Alaska-inspired bites. E had something with duck, she and Cindy also had a carrot thing. I tried a lemon curd - can't go wrong with dessert.
The menu had some Alaskan drinks including an Alaskan IPA I had. Same company as the beer I had in the tour boat in Sitka.
Then it was time to do some shopping and soend down our "sailor loot." We found some magnets, a T-shirt, nothing to exciting and finished with $2.45 left. Now, to finish off that bar tab... .
We were playing a game of Unowith the kids when our Houston friends stopped vy and talked us into particpating in a Family Feud-type game. It was fun but we didn't do well.
They had added a romance oackage to their ship fare so they could board early and had to get a bottle of chmpagne before disembarking. Nathan doesn't even drink champagne so he ordered the bottle, popped it open and let the rest of us drink it.
Cheers!
