Day 5—Water water everywhere…(lots of drops to drink!)

This was a sea day, transiting between Sicily and Greece.  We slept in, late enough to miss breakfast.  (Theresa’s Note – in our defense, we lost an hour last night!) Well, probably for the best.  We did the morning trivia, and with 13/15, we were third place.  Oh well.  We had an early lunch, then went to a presentation on the history of Greece, and then a presentation on “Time”.  Alas, it was at the same time as the afternoon trivia, so we left our team in the lurch.  And then he didn’t even tell us how to go back in time to also make it to the trivia.  Oh, well. 

For dinner, they brought a third entrée, just to try.  Not totally sure why.  But it was a “cauliflower steak”, where they took cauliflower, sliced it thick, and grilled it like a steak, and put it on a bed of curry yoghurt, with raisins on top.  It was nice, but we were glad for our veal and venison pasta.

We headed for a quick drink while waiting for the show at 9. It was music and singing and dancing.  So, Theresa enjoyed it.  I was a bit concerned when, after the song from The Little Mermaid, they segued into the theme song from Titanic.  Uh…??  They went into some “Batman” song neither of us had ever heard of, with a picture of an A10 Warthog in the background.  REALLY not sure what was going on there.  Then they did quite a few James Bond theme songs.  So, all in all, a confusing selection.  Early to bed, as we have a 7:15am tour to Corinth!  Currently the forecast is 100% chance of rain.  Looking forward to it!
