Day 6 Day at Sea

Today was our only full day at Sea this cruise. 

After breakfast in the Terrace Grill, J went for a spin class ( all the fitness classes on the ship have limited spaces but they are free!!). I went for a light workout. 

At 11 am we both attended a lecture put on by Nick Glakas about the islands of French Polynesia - we had met Nick and his wife, Katie, processing through customs at the airport. It was very informative and J and I both took notes!!

We met up with two other couples from Canada, with whom we planned a snorkelling excursion in Fakarava tomorrow!  We were joined by Tammy and Rick again as they will be snorkelling with the same company tomorrow - but going to a different destination. The right of us shared lots of laughs in the Terrace Grill over a two hour lunch. 

We attended another educational lecture by Nick  in the Marina Lounge at 2:30. We decided to go play some mini golf after that, followed by reading by the pool. I went for a lukewarm hot tub after that.  J attended a yoga class while I went to the cocktail party to meet the ship’s officers and staff. 

Our reservation at Toscana at 6:30 was at a shared table. We met a delightful couple from Austin Texas. We had so much fun that dinner took nearly 3 hours!  I am feeling a bit too full, but not entirely wowed by the food at Toscana. 

We have retired to our room and packed our snorkel bags for a 7:30 meet up in the lounge to get the first tender tickets off the boat!!
