Out to lunch....at sea!

Today was one of those days where it seemed like we had too much to do and it was getting in the way of our socializing....how can this be when we are at sea!

First, of course, we went to Starbucks where we had a morning bun and visited with a friend.  Then we went to the post office and the bank.  After the bank we went to see Rosine before we met our friends for lunch!  Rosine seemed to be doing fine...she was laughing and having a good time....although she told us that she is getting worse and that is what is on her mind when she goes to her meals.  She now thinks that she has had a TIA, mini stroke...her handwriting is not as good as it use to be and sometimes she droolsfrom one side of her mouth!  We will have to see what she wants to do about this....brain  surgery?

At last we were able to meet Rita and Mary for lunch.  We drove about 20 minutes south to Dillon's by the zoo.  Vicki had a salmon salad as did Mary.  I had a taco salad and Rita had Tilapia.

                                                                                                                                                           

Mary has her new 5s and so she is already convinced that it is the best!

  Rita does not have her new iPhone yet.....she has ordered the gold one!  Now she is comparing the picture taken with the 4s and the 5s.  The 5s wins!

   Rita has the proof....only we can't see it....we are all so funny with these phones...at least the 4 of us are all members of the Apple family!

 Vicki will just go along with whatever we say....she has the 5s but really doesn't give a  you know what!  All she wants to do is point and shoot...the camera that is ....we don't allow her to have a gun!

The hair, the hair, the hair...what are you going to do about it...OMG!  It is not good!

This restaurant  has aquariums on every wall although this is the biggest one.  Really beautiful! See what a good job my 5s does!

I'll bet this fish has bad breath....Vicki won't like that but she does look cute in there!

I am a tiger on the Chinese Calendar...please don't swallow me!

Well, it is done except for doing the machine stiching...Vicki wants ever one that I do...even this one with flannel on the back!

   At Sea!                                  

The beautiful days at sea just keep rolling along…..  I spent the majority of the day poolside reading about my new MacBook Air.  I need to figure it out before I transition from a PC for my blog.  This evening we had a wonderful evening with Firman van Walle and his wife as guests for dinner.  He was the Hotel Manager on my first Voyage of the Vikings in 2009.  Now he is enjoying a voyage as a guest in the early days of his retirement.  It was a wonderful evening…. Tomorrow we cross the International Dateline, so we will not have Thursday the 4^th and just jump to Friday the 4^th……  We’ll get it back on the way back to California.

BE CAREFUL OUT THERE!
