Evening 6/17/10

This is an alumni cruise, our third. The 2 couples seated were from Los Alamos, NM and Shirley, standing in the yellow shirt, was our Iowa University host. We saw a lot of all 5 of them as were on most of the same tours. The beginning of the cruise it was light pretty much 24 hours of the day so a bit hard to get use to the evenings not being dark!
There was no tea today as there was the Sail Away cocktail party, but the string quartett still played in Horizons and we sat listening to them and watching as we sailed through the Archipelago. After the Iowa "meet & greet" we went down to dinner and sat with 3 other couples. One couple from CT, 2nd from Overland Park, KS (where we lived in the early '70's) and the 3rd couple from Calvary. Funny to discover that Jack from Calvary had been at the 1957 Jamboree with Bob! And here they were together on a cruise 53 years later. We left the dining room at 9:30 to go to the evening's entertainment.


The evening's entertainment was "The Dynamic Duo of Mark Friedman & Rodi Alexander". They were a married couple and the show was music & comedy. Rodi sang familiar show tunes and Mark did comedy as well as playing the piano. We were plenty ready to head to bed at the end of the show!
