Day at Sea - May 5, 2018

May 5, Saturday, our second and last day that was spent at sea.  A leisurely day that started with breakfast whenever but we were eating about the usual time between 8 a.m. and 9 a.m.  I still am dealing with this cold so after breakfast we returned to the cabin to read and relax.  Tom has started coughing a little more and others in our group are also dealing with the same symptoms.  Arrangements had been made for our group to congregate at an upper deck outside area for period of socialization for the women/ BSing for the men a little before 11a.m. it socialization (Comment from Tom, "why is it socializing for the women and BSing for the men?")  I had fallen asleep so Tom went up a little before me but eventually we were both there.  After sitting and gabbing for a spell we obtained lunch to bring to the area to eat.  About 2:30 p.m. the group dispersed until dinner at 6p.m.  Tonight was to be another dressy event, it seems that less and less are doing the real dressing up that once was expected on cruises.  Entertainment tonight was an acrobatic and creative artistry show with the ship’s performers which we thought the best show by this group. Tonight clocks will be set back an hour as we will be back in Italy for our last day.
