Day 2 - At Sea

Yesterday was a lovely sea day.  Lots of activities and entertainment on board.  We took part two trivia's that were well attended.  We didn't win but met some lovely people and enjoyed it.  Breakfast was in the dining room and the service was excellent.  I like the plus package as we get fresh squeezed orange juice at no extra charge.  

We went to the Horizon Court (Cec refers to as "the trough").  It was not busy, food was fresh and again great service.  Lots of light choices for lunch.

Dinner in the dining room was tasty again.  We have been asking for shared tables and we've met the nicest, interesting people!  Here are our desserts and they were so good!

Apple Crumble with vanilla ice cream

Chocolate Mocha Tart with chocolate ice cream.  I left the ice cream but the tart was amazing!
One thing we like about cruising is the entertainment.  Tonight's show was one of the best I've seen on a cruise.  Yaniv speaks in 32 different languages!

He lives in New York now but was born and raised in Israel. He has relatives living there now.  Not easy for anyone and our hearts ache for not only him but everyone that has family in Israel.  

He sang in many languages and his voice is amazing.  He appeared in Season 2 and Season 4 of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel!   I watched that series and loved it.  I don't remember him but that was a while ago.  I'll watch it again when I get home.

This is the song he ended with, it's one of my favorites!
