We awoke to wonderful weather as we are heading west towards the Straights of Gibraltar and then north to Cadiz, Spain tomorrow.

What a beautiful day. We were out on the deck until Noon working on our tan, then cleaned up and checked out the brunch that they had for today. This brunch has replaced the midnight buffet of the past. We ate a little, but not much as were to meet old friends at 1:00pm for lunch.

These friends were on the cruise we took last year in September and they were at our table for dinner. They are from Scotland and really very nice. We ate lunch with them and then we all went down to the slot qualifying tournament and then the blackjack qualifier. So far we are both in the finals of the slot tournament but we missed qualifying for the blackjack tournament. This is only the 2nd time ever Ed has missed the finals of a blackjack tournament.

Then we played a little in the casino, went to the buffet for snacks and just relaxed for the rest of the afternoon.

After dressing for dinner, we met some friends from England in the center of the ship for an hour of dancing. It has been a tradition for us to meet each evening at 7:30pm to dance. They are a wonderful couple and live just outside Southhampton. They even invited us to their house after the cruise but of course we have to get right to the London Airport or we would.
Dinner was as usual, the entainment in the show room was not good and we had fun in the casino and left a little past midnight.
Tomorrow is our last stop - Cadiz, Spain - should be fun.
Night
