August 1 - At Sea
Today was a lazy day at sea. I went to a lecture by Michael Scott this morning on our next two ports, Liverpool and Belfast. The weather is not warm enough to spend any time on the pool deck, so we just lounged around the cabin or Coffee Connection. During breakfast down in Compass Rose we saw some dolphins jumping along in the ship's bow wake. That's the first time we've seen anything other than sea birds. No sea life to be seen After lunch I went to see the movie "The Ballad of Wallis Island," which was filmed in northern Scotland. It was sweet, but not a barn burner. We decided to use up most of our shipboard credits and bought another of the Le Monde globes like we have, although this time in blue. And Michael got a leather carry-on bag that turned out to be on sale, which left more money for me to buy some overpriced hair products at the salon. Might as well since they aren't refundable.
