We are cruising in the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden these past three days and tomorrow we will move into the Arabian Sea which is part of the Indian Ocean. To keep all the passengers active the cruise director and activities director have put together lots of things to do. There is a lecture every day by David Price Williams who is from the Smithsonian Institute and has given us some interesting information about the area we have been visiting. Today's lecture was about the invention of the alphabet from over 6000 years ago. There are games all day like bingo, bridge, casino games, baggo, paddle tennis, putting contests, etc. We could go to enrichment seminars on beauty, back or foot pain, diet, jewelry, and more. We have passed up dance lessons and cooking classes.
This morning they put on a County Fair with lots of games hosted by the different departments. The kitchen staff had a guess this smell, engineering had a bolt puzzle, destinations had a guess where this picture was taken. Then there was a ring toss, a ladder game, bean bag toss, blind make-up application, and, our favorite, Shake Your Booty. They filled a Kleenex box with ping pong balls and tied it around your hips and at the signal you shake all the balls out! John was really quick!
