A normal sea day for the most part. Doug spent the morning making more room on the computer for our thousands of pictures, while I went to bridge.
After bridge I went to the culinary demo by our new guest chef, Phillip Kraal. He is from New Zealand and brings a hefty resume with one item being the personal chef to the late King Hussein I of Jordan. He made three salmon dishes: Thai-style salmon cakes (which we tasted); salmon in a Tequila mint sabayon; and Burmese-style marinated Salmon fillet. They were all appetizers or first courses and very good.
Burmese-style salmon topped with red onion slices – served with crackers – yummy!
This afternoon I tried my hand at duplicate bridge with Arlene, my morning bridge partner. We came in last – we were both so nervous we couldn’t remember a thing we had learned! But we’ll try again another afternoon.
Dinner with our table and then back to the room for a quiet evening of TV and e-mails. We lost another hour today (having lost one in the night before as well), so we wanted to get some extra sleep!
