We were at sea again today. Once out of Japanese waters we finally got internet access back. Everyone on the ship must have been online this morning. It took about 3 hours of off and on connections this morning to publish the post 63 on Hiroshima. I waited until after dinner to upload the posts for days 64 and 65 and they went much quicker.
This morning we had a safety drill. New rules require ships to hold a drill every 14 days on cruises that are more than 14 days. This segment is 16 days. The drill is the same as when you initially get on the ship - instructions on how to use a life jacket and what to do in an emergency evacuation. That took up about an hour after breakfast.
This afternoon Ray went to Dr Elovitz's final lecture on "World Affairs Hot Spots." This was a question and answer session, not a presentation. While he attended that, I sat in on the last art auction. This one was very lightly attended, but there were a couple of new artists discussed that I was unfamiliar with. I always learn something at these.
Nothing else to report today, other than the fact that I finished another book this morning. I have finished 5 books on this cruise in my spare time. Usually I am so busy with other stuff it takes me several months to finish one. Limited internet access and other distractions can be good. I do love my Kindle. On past cruises I use to bring several paperbacks and leave them in the library for someone else's enjoyment when I was done. Now all I need is my kindle.
