Queen Mary 2 Day 10

Breakfasted with Sheila in Britannia. Met Andrew and his Dad who are going to Maine skiing! Chatted about Ametican football's draw in UK. Andrew's dad noted he was confused by defense play and I suggested he YouTube for examples. Well received.

Saw a rainbow!!!

 

The seas are high today,  about 25 foot swells. I wish I could capture them on film!!

 I'm sitting at the window in Queen's Room, knitting and watching mini rainbows appear at the swells crest and spume in the sunlight. I can't get to my camera fast enough! Some things just have to stay in my memory.

I was blessed this morning by the guy in charge of Internet aboard ship. Last night I totally forgot to turn off my wi-fi and lost 260 minutes. The IT angel aboard gave them all back to me, noting we all make mistakes! I hope he has a wonderful day!

Attended a really good lecture on Busby Berkeley and movie musicals. Until speaker pointed it out, I had no idea BB's dance extravaganzas were based on military marching patterns! 

Tea with Sheila, Pat and 2014 John. Scrapped attending showing of Ben Hur . I had no idea there even was an updated version of the movie! Going was forgotten after several people told how awful it was. 

Went to Sequence Dancing. Still enamored of it. I wish the YMCA offered such a course! Revelation at dinner - only three sea days left, then NYC and home!
