Morning: bridge and cooking demo with the two main chefs from the ship. Lobster folded in chicken breast in a coconut curry sauce; also bay shrimp around lemongrass with a spicy sweet bell pepper dip. Both were excellent – the last one my favorite.
Afternoon: Doug went to his secular humanist meeting and both met up later for talk by Ambassador Walker – this time about international conflict and cooperation and their diplomacy. It was quite informative. Then I learned how to put pictures in my Blog, so I’m going to try this and see if it works!
Evening: skipped dessert at dinner! This is quite an accomplishment – two days in a row. But the highlight came as I was walking the deck after dinner. The seas were like a lake today – the calmest I’ve seen them. As I looked out at this huge expanse of beautiful blue ocean, my eye caught an extra movement. It was a group of about 3 or 4 dolphins jumping in and out of the water. What an unexpected joy! Made the whole day!
Here we are in Antarctica – brrrr!
