What a nice day! Slept late; brunch served at 10 AM (with just made Belgian Waffles), and relaxing day onboard. We enjoyed visiting with friends, Team Trivia (Art played and I observed), and just relaxing. After a week in London and 2 busy days in Normandy, it was nice to catch our breath and relax. Last night we were gently rocked to sleep by the ship hitting 18 foot waves (no extra charge for the rocking). Today it was misty and foggy most of the day with most of us walking as if we had too much to drink last night!. Tomorrow is supposed to be sunny with a high of close to 70 when we walk around Vigo, Spain. Vigo is 32 kilometers from Portugal on the coast of Galacia with a population of 300,000. The Galacia region is Celtic in origin. Languages are both Spanish and Galacian. More tomorrow.
Tonight we had dinner at a new Celebrity restaurant called Qzine. It's really hard to explain what this was - besides a wonderful experience. The menu (on an iPad) looks similar to a Tapas menu in that it has multiple choices (more than 20) that you choose and which are put together by the chef to made a menu. Friends Sandy and Roy joined us and we had a magical time. The pictures will show the food selections better (when I get them organized). We each selected several items (all to be shared with tablemates). Selections ranged from Sushi lolllipops, diablo shrimp, three types of cold soup served in test tubes with straws and 3 hot souffles to filets and Persian chicken kabobs....desserts were cupcakes that you decorated with choice of 3 icings and 4 toppings, mini cheesecake with mini-graham crackers, incredible chocolate ginache and 3 flavored geloto bomb. I don't know if I ever ate so much at one time or felt so full. But I do know that we had a delightful evening including candles in the ginache and happy birthday singing by my table, waiters and other guests. Really terrific.
We walked a few calories off and headed to our cabin where we watched the pundits dissect the election results. No more about that....I want the day to end on an upbeat note!
