Beautiful blue sky on this rest day at sea. One of us has needed the rest more than the other - more so, because she lost an hour moving into another time zone as we sail for Tallinn, Estonia. I do need to mention Pat's exercise class, her lap of the ship and her vigorous stair climbing.
Had a "meet & greet" of Cruise Critic members with a number of the senior crew turning up. Once again, a big number of the on board Cruise Critic members are Australian and we had one American approach us to proudly tell us he had been born in Melbourne - father, a US serviceman who took an Australian war bride and took her back to the USA..
One of us spent the afternoon on Deck 17 in, and around one of the pool and spa areas - beautiful in the sunshine. The Regal Princess is a huge ship but outside of meal times never seems crowded. It is very stable and even on the top decks, you can barely feel that you are at sea. It has a glass bottomed Sea Walk on Deck 16 which extends about 5M out over the sea. Interestingly, it is less challenging than I have found above ground glass platforms. The Baltic is a very busy shipping area and there is rarely a time when we don't have four or five ships in our balcony line of sight.
Big night with the champagne chandelier, the champagne and the Captain's address - English, with a fun sense of humour. Very enjoyable formal dinner and then the "Spectacular" Show, a very high quality production.
