Last 5 days at sea on the way from Hawaii

December 14 - 18, 2017

The next 5 days we will be at sea.  Tic is very sick with a bad case of bronchitis so he basically stayed in the stateroom all 5 days.

This beautiful morning many of us are throwing our leis (flowers only) off the stern/back of the ship.  It was a fun ship tradition to follow. 

Above we are preparing to throw our leis. Below we are in the process of throwing our leis.  Can you see pink bunches just above some people's arms?

I was getting to throw 2 leis, mine and Tic's. Above I'm ready to throw the 2nd leis. Below I was laughing with other passengers having fun after throwing our leis.

Beautiful black & white picture of the mid-morning sun reflecting on the ocean.

 Some gingerbread houses set up in a Christmas display on the ship.

 Above and below are a couple of critter towels left in our room early in the cruise.  

This sunset shows a tanker ship on the horizon.

To help us remember what day of the week it, the crew changed the carpets in all the elevators showing the day of the week.

While Tic was sleeping in the stateroom, I played a lot of cards and or games with several of the new friends we made on the ship.  In the evenings, after I went to dinner, I would bring Tic some dinner and we would watch movies on the television. There were plenty of movies to choose from. I really felt sorry for Tic.
