Wedneday Jan 9th @ sea enroute to Equator

Today was another one of those terrible days at sea.  We started with a lecture by Dr. Jay Wolf who is a fabulous story teller.  We then headed up to the pool hardly anyone there.  I sat in the shade Bill sat in the sun and is now RED.  Went to a Latino buffet but I wasn't really hungry and nothing enticed me so I just asked for a glass of ice tea.  Well this was not good enough for Uzo or Zoltan(our waiter in the Dining Room)  One brought me the tortilla soup the other brought me a chocolate dessert!!!!!!!!  After spending a couple more hours reading and listening to the band by the pool it was time for our massages.  We each had a 90 minute Hot stone massage and  I have been lucky to have Camilla the last three trips on here.  She has even offered to come up if I am in pain and they are closed she is so sweet.  After the massage I had a quick shower up there and then had my hair done as tonight was formal night 2.  Ran down and dressed in time to go to our Crystal Society Cocktail party.  Then dinner tonight is one of my favorites.  It is the French Dinner  They have Escargot, onion soup (second to Melissa's I think they use wine in theres!) Bill could not make up his mind between the rack of lamb or the Coq au vin but he went with the lamb I had the Veal ala Mama basically it is veal cordon blue.  When Bill finished his lamb there was Zolton our waiter with an order of Coq au vin for him to try.  Dessert was grand marnier souffle and they come around and pour Grand marnier right into the souffle ymmmmmm.  We got so carried away speaking with the Matre d Remi that the show started.  It's okay we had seen it before so we hit the casino for a little while and then Bill went for his cigar and I came up to do the blog.

Tomorrow we will cross the Equator!  They have a ceremony everytime they cross it and it is quite funny I hope to take some pictures tomorrow.  No massages tomorrow but I do have a couple more coming up plus a facial.  ahh all this relaxing is killing me!
