North Atlantic



The waves are nine feet today since we are in the North Atlantic and that is to be expected. We really don't feel it because the ship is very stable. I slept till 10:30 this morning, had brunch and did my daily walk. It was hard fighting the 30-mile-per-hour winds but I did it anyway. Jerry got up early and came in third in the golf contest. He said everyone else cheated and he should have won. He got a golf ball and some tees as a prize.



Last night we got all dressed up and had dinner at the captain's table with the HR manager. It was really lovely. The wine was fabulous. I drank way to much.



This afternoon we will enter the Mediterranean through the Pillars of Hercules. We should have a clear view of Gibraltar and Spain on one side and Tangier and north Africa on the other. It should be quite a sight!
