We started out really late, nine o’clock or so, because we have such a
dark room in the interior of the ship and we don’t have any windows so
we were all just thinking that it was three in the morning and went back
to bed. Finally I figured out and looked at my watch. Oh well we had
some nice rest. We actually didn’t have breakfast because we were so
late getting started. Instead we got ready to go to this “Meet and
Greet” meeting hosted by this group called “Cruise Critic” (if you ever
want to go on a cruise check it out, I actually don’t know what it is
but it must be good or else mom wouldn’t have used it). Anyway Hannah
and I got ready before mom and Oma so we went up to the Crows Nest to
write yesterday’s post. The meeting, by the way was at the Crows Nest on
one side. We were sitting on the other side looking out at the ocean in
front of us. Mom showed up at the meeting late, really late, so late
that she missed the entire meeting. She did show up for the mingling
time after the meeting and somehow or another she ended up talking to
some ladies about the iPad and how they didn’t know how to use it. Well
she volunteered me to teach an iPad class. I had come over just as she
was doing so and I was just a little surprised. Well, I walked out of
the Crows Nest with an iPad class with four women at two o’clock in the
afternoon. We decided to go have some lunch and after we ate we went to
play ping-pong until time for me to teach the iPad class. The iPad class
went well, our progress: we made it to learning how to mass delete
photos! Anyway after an hour of class we decided that we would have
another class the next day at the same time two o’clock. Remember this
time, it will come in handy near the end of the day. After I was
finished with the class I joined club HAL for ice cream an then plagued
ping-ping with mom. Then Hannah and I went swimming for a little while.
Once we were done we went back to the room to get dressed for the formal
dinner. The formal dinner is a very formal occasion. I wore a suit and
tie. If you’re reading this Nic, thank you for the suit, it has come in
handy. Goodwill also helped out by supplying the shoes and tie. The food
was delicious, we had an appetizer, soup, an entree and a desert. All of
which were good. After our dinner we went to go see a pianist perform.
Before he started though, the guy announced that there would be a time
change in the middle of the day tomorrow, at two o’clock. There will be
no two o’clock tomorrow. He joked that he was going to work out from two
till three. Now remember that time I told you to remember? Well if you
remember I had scheduled my iPad class at two o’clock but tomorrow it
not exist, oops. Anyway the pianist was really good. I enjoyed the
songs. One of the songs was a medley of some of Beethoven songs made
modern, it was really interesting. It just goes to show that the
melodies are the same just the style, and instruments that the melodies
are played on change. After that show as we were going towards our room
we saw another thing set up. It was a game show. We decided to watch
that, they took some people form the audience that wanted to do it and
one of the guys from the staff asked the questions. One of ladies was
just not good at all but he staff guy made her feel fine. He asked all
of the other people to step back and let her get some questions for only
herself. One time when she answered a question “John F. Kennedy!” he
said, “Yes, also known as Jimmy Carter but you know he went by a lot of
things back then.” Anyway everyone had a good time and it was really
funny to watch. After that we came back to our room and got ready for
bed. I am currently writing his post and getting tirrrrrrrreeeeeeedddddd
oops, I think I held down a key on he keyboard, that probably means I
should go to bed.
