Another 5 Days at Sea! (January 27, 2016 – January 31, 2016)

Reading Length: Grab ‘n’ Go Coffee

Kristin Reporting!

I didn’t write an official break down of this five day stretch at sea. I’m putting this together from notes on the future date of March 6, 2016—so I’m as interested as you to see what we did on these five days at sea.

Here’s a brief summary of our 5 days at sea:

·        We began to put Big Bubba to good use—the picture promised in the Hawaii post is attached to this post! (We are still loving our Bubba as of 3/6/2016!)

·        Deeply philosophical sibling discourse occurred on the 27^th – “D and I soaked for over an hour in the Jacuzzi. We talked about the Star Wars movie, the Star Wars series, and the new Star Treks and the old Star Treks.”

·        K worked on a blog entry for Hawaii on the 28^th — it would be the last time she would work on the blog for over a month! (Other than writing notes and descriptions of each day which she sends diligently via email every day to Scott.)

·        The sibling duo continued to go to the gym every day.

·        Doom 3 Coop was finally beaten!

·        On January 29^th, D & K went to the equator ceremony starring King Neptune who granted the Pacific Princess safe passage across the equator. The show was funny with horrible costuming (on purpose—it was a skit that Karneval members would enjoy!)

·        D&K dunked themselves following the official tradition of seafarers who “crossed the line” for the very first time—and then they did it again!

·        On January 30^th, the excitement of the day was cutting Davin’s hair in the teeny tiny bathroom!

·        D & K started watching Babylon 5. (Last time we watched the series was when Kristin was in the 8^th grade.)

·        Kristin “basically finished” her Pantheon of Gods.

·        January 30^th was also the day we witnessed the strangest sea-scape of all time. It was like being on an alien planet! A glassy sea with cotton-candy clouds!

·        Kristin managed to pay everyone’s bills using the ship internet.

·        On January 31^st, Kristin went to see the passenger Hula and Ukelele show. It was pretty awful, especially the hula dancing. But Kristin went and did the audience participation Hula dance and found it extremely difficult, so even though the passengers were completely unimpressive, they has obviously learned something!

·        Amazing fruit art was seen at the special Sunday Brunch!

·        Davin did a lot of things on his computer every day!  He made a lot of progress on his world’s map, and worked on his story.

That about sums it up!

Tomorrow’s adventure will be exploring Pago Pago, American Samoa!

Til Next Time!

Davin and Kristin, Sibling Globetrotters
