Thursday, May 2, 2013. SEA DAY #1

Seems I was sort of signed up for the Sea Princess Passenger Chorus, by J...so I figured I would at the very least give it a go, as they say. I went to the first practice today for a new program to be presented the day before we arrive in Sydney. Practice went well with many men...perhaps 40 or more and fewer women, perhaps 20 or so...and they sound very strong. We are led by a brother sister team who also teach dance and do evening trivia...a well packaged team. I like the music and I'm enjoying singing bass for a change...until this throat thing goes away!

Now for the exercise report...today is the last free day and tomorrow J and I start getting serious about walking or going to the gym. It didn't happen in Hawaii...we had five ports in five days and long tiring excursions in each place. Now with sea days and with J's last two shows tonight for awhile, we'll be able to focus more on the gym.

Show Report: Early show went better than yesterday's but a rather blah audience not too ready to get involved in the show. Late show had some drinkers who were happy to clap along so the rest of the audience followed suit. J said he mumbled some nonsense speaking in tongues, but I didn't catch it...he sounded fine to me so I must be hearing in tongues! In fact he had all the right costumes on at the right times with matching shoes and no trips or stumbles, so I think the night was a success.

Having fun...I like having a balcony...weather holding...Tahiti here we come!
