4-16 Day 101 At sea

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.

CIMG6679Burmese-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!
