Because we are on a repositioning cruise, where the Viking Polaris moves from the Great Lakes to South America and Antarctica, there are many sea days. Although many people dislike sea days, I’m not one of them. There always seems to be something to do, whether it be lectures, chores, reading, or simply relaxing. Today, I seemed to do a little of everything.
When Tim and I went to the World Café for lunch, we were surprised to find an elaborate dessert buffet. This was a first, and the goodies were beautifully presented. Of course, we had to sample several of the offerings.
Desserts Can Be Works of Art |
In the afternoon, I had signed up for a premium wine tasting. This was much more pleasing to my tastebuds than the cognac tasting that I attended earlier in the voyage. I enjoyed sampling and learning about some of the more expensive wines on the ship.

Although the evening entertainment on the ship has been rather low key, which suits me perfectly, tonight’s was a bit different. I had no intention of participating in the “Rock the Boat Party,” but I happened to stumble across it as I was making my way to the Explorers’ Lounge. I was curious and stopped to watch as the dancing started. I quickly left, however, before someone tried to drag me out onto the dance floor. I think everyone had fun, and I was happy to see that many crew members were also able to participate. For me, however, the bar was a much safer place to be!
