SEADAY’S
Because we cancelled our Devils Island stop we now have 3 seaday’s in a row. On the first seaday we celebrated the fact that we crossed the equator. A tradition on the longer cruises is the King Neptune Ceremony. This is a celebration of a sailers first crossing of the equator. Groups of the crew on board are led in front of a judge (the captain) and a few officers. The crew are being brought up as prisoners and are being sentenced. They first are to kiss the 6ft long fish which is the displayed on a table and then they are covered in soap. They either are sentenced to be thrown in the pool or sit in the sun. Most people on the ship turned out for this event. We spent a lot of time around the pool these seaday’s and playing a domino game called Mexican train. Still enjoying the cruise.
We were denied entry by the government for our stop on Devils Island due to the risk of the Corona virus. This is the number one thing on the ship people talk about lately. Currently we are all healthy on the ship. I decided to move my flight reservations from Tuesday to Sunday to fly to Phoenix, basically canceling my extra 2 days stay in Fort Lauderdale. So far tomorrow’s stop in Barbedos is still on. Keep our fingers crossed.
Stay Healthy Out There
