That was the 2:00am wakeup call we go this morning. When you board the ship they have you go over the life boat drill and what sounds the horns will make when we need to muster to our life boat, however they don’t cover the fire one. So our family and all the other old people on the ship got a wakeup call. It was just a simple electrical fire in a dishwasher until up on the lido deck, but still it was a awakening to the dangers at sea.
Back to the vacation, today was a day at sea. I spent the day sleeping and laying around. We watched 2 movies and then we went and played cards with my parents. It’s these times I enjoy the most. It’s nice to sit and listen to the wisdom and opinions to help shape and form your own decisions.
Tomorrow morning, we will be in Istanbul, and we will be touring the Blue Mosque, St Sofia’s, and the Grand Bazaar and many other places. I am sure I will have some more stories to tell, and experiences to share. Until then… the quest for my new hat continues.
