Saturday – 17 March 2012 – Happy St. Patrick’s Day –  At Sea

Sunrise at 5:29 am – still very hot.  I walked at 6:30 am – and am glad I didn’t wait any longer.   After breakfast – attended part of a lecture on Cairns, Australia – before meeting Patte for our 10:00 am Bridge class. 

After lunch -- spent the day working on this blog and organizing the hundreds of photos I've taken.  Trivia was early today -- 3:30 pm – we did not even come in 3^rd  --  but we still have Brain Teasers to redeem ourselves.

At 5:30 -- a special show with an Australian singer, Karen Beckett, is held in the Regatta Lounge.  She is extraordinary -- great voice and personality. 

We invited George and Hillary (from our trivia group) to dine with us in The Grand Dining Room --- which is a vision of green -- nice dinner and lots of laughs.  

Brain Teasers at 8:45 brings us back from the brink -- since we come in 2nd.

At 9:30 it is time for the Regatta's version of an hour in an Irish Pub --- basically dancing and balloons in the Regatta Lounge with the band entertainment staff.  It is fun and Phil dances with all the girls.

We had a very busy day at sea and stayed up until 10:30pm.

Thanks for Reading,

Pat
