Wednesday, January 18th, 2012…Day 13…At Sea!

Today was another perfect sea day with temperatures in the 80’s and calm waters.  Started our day together, which without a doubt, is the greatest part of this trip! First thing we did was get  right in the gym with our weight training program.  Jerry played in a Texas Hold ‘Em tournament, and later played in the Casino and Jerry hit a Royal Flush.  Seriously, they have NEVER had one and later, he HIT ANOTHER ONE!  YEEHAW, people want him to teach them the game!  Today we branched out and tried a few new things…like learning to dance the Rumba!  I have a hard time following ANYONE  I just gotta lead!  And Jerry’s got 2 left feet, but we sure had fun!  Then on to Bingo where I won $44!   Our entertainment this evening was Doc Severinsen, Johnny Carson’s bandleader.  Also today at sea we saw this oil drilling rig and platform, it was huge.  Tomorrow we dock early in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.  We are scheduled for an 8 hour tour, most excited for Christ the Redeemer on Corcovado Mountain, taking a cable car to Sugar Loaf Mountain, and then the beaches. Then on to our 4 days land excursion.
