Alaska Cruise Day 2

The second day of our Alaska Cruise is "at sea" which means there are no stops.  We spent the day exploring the ship further, eating, napping, listening to music, and walking the track on the ship. 
 
Our first stop was the dining hall where we had breakfast.  After that it was off to a seminar on how to get the most out of your digital camera.  Pretty basic but it was worth the time.  We walked around he track so many times that we traveled 7 miles throughout the day.  We had to do his or we would be so fat from the good food we wouldn't fit our clothes by the end of the cruise.
 
In the afternoon was a seminar on what to watch for while shopping in the ports of call.  The gal giving he talk was very interested in getting people to buy diamonds and jewelry.  We didn't get much out of the time spent there although Goni did admit that someday she might like a diamond.
 
All over the ship there is live musical entertainment. We listened to a lot of great music but our favorite was the Frankie Valli Tribute program in the theater in the evening.  The group sang great old songs and it was a wonderful program.  The group plays in Las Vegas and around he country.
 
We change time zones (go back one hour) when we get into Alaska.  Our first stop is Ketchikan at 07:00 hours Monday morning.  We didn't book any excursions in Ketchikan so we will just be wandering around on foot looking at he sites.
 
No pictures today but maybe tomorrow.
