The weather each day was perfect – the seas each day were calm. As the captain says: “Following Seas, Following Winds” is what every seaman hopes for. The best way to go through the Transatlantic Crossing is to show examples of the weather and some comment on entertainment.
December 4, 2009 – At Sea
Lecture 2 - “The CSI Effect” – the show had “legs” – more people than the first lecture (400+).
December 4 – Entertainment - “The Perfect Gentlemen” - kind of vaudeville type group – funny and entertaining.

Tonight is obligatory “O Solo Mio” night in the Dining Rooms. Time for wait staff to march and for passengers to waive their napkins
Ellen and the marching waiters
“O Solo Mio”
Tonight’s headliner is a singer/pianist/guitarist/banjoist (whose name I cannot remember) – he was terrific.
Tonight is also the big parade in the Promenade – all of the Cruise Staff are in costume including our Italian rep (whose Italian class I attended) – Simona

Tonight’s Headliner is Sean O’Shea – We saw him on the Pacific Princess Panama Canal Cruise. He is a crazy impressionist. His show was great.

Happy Birthday, Leo
The lectures continue to go well including getting lots of questions following the talk
The Entertainment Tonight is “Knight Magic” – a great magician. Here, in sequence, is the “Sawing the Girl in Half” illusion.
How do they do it?

The ship has a 9 hole mini-golf course on Deck 14.
Yes I did get beat.
The Headliner tonight is Brandi Chapman – we also saw her on the Pacific Princess in April. She puts on a great show and has a tremendous voice – I especially liked her tribute to the Oscars (because she sang both “The Heart Will Go On”and “Somewhere Over the Rainbow”).
December 9, 2009 – At Sea
Today is my sixth lecture in a row
The attendance continues to be great (500+).
Tonight was the second Production Show - “Music in Motion”. Lots of great dancing.
