Day 13--At Sea (Dec 31, 2010)

Day 13—At Sea

Slept until 7:00 this morning—sure is going to be hard to get used to getting up at 4:00 again starting Tuesday when I go back to work.  As usual, went up to the Lido buffet for breakfast—this time I ate inside instead of out at the Sea View bar since it was getting chilly.

After breakfast, I attended the photo workshop on editing photos—part 1 was in the morning and part 2 in the afternoon.  Windows 7 comes with a photo editing program and is really easy to use.  I learned a lot and will be able to use it when I get home since my new computer has Windows 7 loaded.  Too bad my laptop doesn’t or I could have started editing them now.

Took a short nap in the afternoon (told you I was getting lazy on these “at sea” days).  Then read a book on my Kindle while watching the water.  It was cold out, so I sat in the Explorers Lounge and just looked out the window.

It was formal night again for dinner and the dining room was decorated for the New Year’s Eve festivities.  I had the filet mignon and lobster tail for dinner and once again, it was wonderful.  I brought the bottle of Champagne my travel agent had provided and shared it with my table mates. 

I wasn’t really in a festive mood—guess I kept thinking it was a really bad year and that I wish it had never happened.  But I am glad it’s over and thankful to all my friends and family who were there for me and who helped me get through it.

Was back in my room a little before 11:00 pm and asleep before the new year arrived.
