Alaska Cruise Day 2

This morning was overcast with pretty heavy looking clouds. No fog though so we could see land from our balcony. A beautiful sight to wake up to - calm seas and snow capped mountains.

After breakfast in the dining room we strolled back through the shops on board ship. Every day they put special sale merchandise out in the Atrium, so of course, this required checking it out daily - don't want to miss out on that special bargain.

There wasn't much happening in the morning that we wanted to participate in, so I spend it writing notes about the cruise while Dean took a morning nap. At noon we went to the talk about the ports of call and where all the "hot" shopping spots were. Sounded just like the ones from the Caribbean, only different named ports!

After a quick bite in the Windjammer we went to a lecture on "Glaciers of the Pacific Northwest". Very interesting information and I think that we will be able to look at Hubbard Glacier through different eyes now.

I also went to the art auction this afternoon, but as I promised Dean, I didn't purchase any. I did get a "free" $95.00 piece of art for attending. If I could get the $95.00 I'd sell it - It looks like something my 10 year old granddaughter could draw!

The evening, just like the day, passed quickly with dinner in the dining room (formal tonight) and the Royal Caribbean Singers and Dancers show in the theater. When we came out of the show at 10 pm it was still daylight with the sun still visible - can't get used to that, but got some great sunset pictures.
