August 11, 2025 – At Sea – Gulf of St Lawrence – Partly Cloudy – 61F


It was a little choppy when I went up to breakfast in the Windows Cafe.

It was foggy as well but that lifted a bit while I was up there.

I have an afternoon talk today so the breakfast is leisurely and wonderful.  I am now getting pancakes (the waffles tend to be too thick and chewy) and cottage cheese and sour cream.  I have swapped scrambled eggs for a little bit of either cereal and milk or oatmeal with brown sugar and raisins.  The coffee continues to be A+ (still making my own Americano in a to go cup).  

I looked over my talk while enjoying an iced Café Americano in the Mosaic Café.  Just like my old routine.

Another deli lunch for me in Windows Cafe - the salad trio.

My talk today at 2 PM is “Forensics and History: The Search for the Unknown Titanic Child” – I drew another full house. The talk ran a little long at 57 minutes and I chatted with some guests out in the hallway.  One of the guests gave me a replica of a ticket on the Titanic - I am guessing it came from the Titanic Exhibit in Quebec City.

It was warm enough to spend some time out on the Pool Deck listening to VIBZ.

At 5:30 PM, we caught VIBZ Pre-Dinner set up in the Living Room. Relaxing “Island Music”.  A good time to have either a Disaronno Sour or a Curacao Sour.  Ellen likes the :"bird cage" hanging chair 

and I usually sit next to her in a standard chair.

We ate dinner in the Discoveries Restaurant and enjoyed our Special Meals – Ellen ordered Kosher Fried Chicken; I had the chef make me Spaghetti Aglio Oleo (not as good as last time but still a good option to the Kosher meals).  Good dinners, both of them.

We saw the end of Mark Donoghue’s first show on this cruise – just enough and then to the Living Room, where Bernardo’s was hosting another game show - “Myrical Lyrical Show” – a complete the lyrics game.  Bernardo, it seems, has very few free hours in the day.

Time Change: Clocks move one hour forward.
