Day 44 - Tue 10/23/18 At Sea to Raratonga, Cook Islands


My Mariner lunch harem

Today was a recovery day for most of us after 3 back to back ports full of activity. Lectures for us today included a port talk by EXC guide Kay, Reef fish by Martin Cohen, Light in Photography by Jo Bradford, & Ask the Captain. But the most bizarre gathering was the Mariner's Award presentation during which only 2 bronze Medallions were passed out. The Hotel Director indicated that on the next segment that there are no awards. It was a real waste of time and effort in my humble opinion. The Mariner luncheon was excellent and 5 of us 48 day cruisers were shared a table. The 4 ladies said I had my personal harem!

Angela and I watched the movie 'Adrift' which despite a sad ending was pretty good. Tani & Rose, the Cook island couple who have been singing in smaller venues throughout this segment were the Mainstage Entertainment and they did two different shows at 8pm and 10pm. They were excellent!!

Tomorrow we hope to tender into Raratonga. The seas today were swells of 6-8 feet and it was overcast. Stay tuned.
