After a full day yesterday in New York, I was happy to have a sea day today. The Atlantic Ocean was relatively calm, thank goodness.
Today was a day for chores, including laundry. I love that Viking ships have launderettes on board and even provide detergent. It certainly simplifies the amount of clothes one must pack.
Tim and I attended a future cruise presentation on Egypt and Mekong River cruises. The itineraries were very interesting, but we haven’t booked anything yet.
I don’t remember how we spent the rest of the day, but my evening was busy. Todd presented a mini lecture on “The Halifax Explosion: The Day the Clocks Stopped in Nova Scotia.” I had never heard of this event when two ships collided in 1917 in the Halifax harbor and created the largest manmade explosion in history. Wow!

After a rather sobering talk, it was time for something light. I rarely attend the shows or other entertainment in the evenings, but tonight I made an exception, and I’m glad I did. The Viking Polaris entertainment team presented a “Movie Musical and Broadway Performance,” and they sang or played so many of my favorite songs, many of which I had not heard in years.
