June 30, 2001: Day at Sea



I slept in until 9 a.m. and had breakfast in the Windjammer café with mom. Then, we went on a lecture about the Amber stone. It was worn by the Royal people of Russia. The light colored amber is 30 million years old and the darker amber is around 50 million years old. It is found mainly in the Baltic sea.



We played miniature golf with Charlene. It was quite comical watching us play the game.


Grandpa came down with Laurie for ice cream. Then, we walked a mile around the ship.


We went to the entertainment show tonight at 9 p.m. It was swing dancing. Then, we went to see the Not-so-Newlywed game. It was comical. One couple from England said they had whoopee in a hammock. They had been married 58 years. Another couple married 3 years, had whoopee in a cemetery and on a washing machine.


It’s now 11:30 p.m. and it is still light outside. We are headed for Bergen, Norway. Sunrise is at 4 a.m. in this part of the world in the summer. In the winter, they don’t see much light.
