Great calm seas and fun to dance the first night with Tonya and Suzanne. Been a while since i Have done that. NO dancing in the Hanseatic!!

I had my wonderful rack of lamb waiting for me in the dining room with Frank and Wendy and two lurkers, Linda and Nick who are delightful and need to post Linda would probably be the poster. So I hope to move her into a poster before the end of the trip. It was her birthday so it was an extra special dinner.

Today I started to teach pooch. It really is a simple game but I am not sure I have Brad's teaching skills. However at the end of the first game I think they had it down. Betty was the first winner - smart lady. Playing without Brad the King of Pooch is not the same. He kept score now I have to do it and I am not as good at this as Brad.

Tonight we eat with John and Tonya and it is the Captains Welcome aboard party so we have some great food waiting for us.

Be back later.
