Last night there was a farewell to Acapulco and Mexican midnight buffet. We didn’t sail until 12:00 midnight, so we were able to see the city all lit up. It was quite beautiful. And as an added attraction, the neon lights on all the busses and many vehicles was quite something! I tried to get a picture, but as you can see it was dark and they were moving. As we left the port, Eileen and I were hot tubbing. It was a lovely warm evening for all the festivities.
No rushing around today, just got up and had breakfast and then tried to catch up on the journal, but the battery was running low so we quit and came back to the room to read and sit on the deck to watch for turtles. Peter is the turtle spotter, but by the time he says – hey there’s a turtle – it’s gone. You really have to spot them for yourself. There are certainly lots around!
At 2:30 we went to the Day 5 of Trivia Challenge. I like to call it Cut Throat Trivia. The teams have been formed since the first day of the cruise and the people ruthless – tattling on each other if one has more than 6 members. And to think it is all for the grand prize of a pen or a key chain. Eileen and I sat close by but we worked on Sudoku and let the others fight it out. The next Challenge Trivia is the last one and will be on the next at sea day. I think I will come to see the carnage when one team is finally declared the winner. They do have morning triva and that is fun but this is stupid.
Tonight is our Mystery Theatre dinner. It starts out with Champagne and hors d’ouvres in one of bars and then we go to dinner in one of the other restaurants where we are part of the investigative team to figure out who dun it! Should be a lot of fun.
Tomorrow we are in Puerto Vallarta – more shopping and maybe another wonderful lunch of beer and shrimp in an outdoor restaurant!

Can't beat that Mexican guacamole and fresh salsa. Our resort had endless amounts at any hour of the day. Miss that.
School update: In Space Planning we were given as assignment to draft an apartment after being given only the outer walls and a patio door. We were allowed to put walls anywhere, add windows anywhere, put the entry door anywhere, place all the furniture and put materials symbols on all the surfaces. Before we handed them in the teacher had us leave them on our desks and then walk around and vote for our favorite layout. Mine was one of only 6 that people voted for. I felt pretty darn proud.
Colour & Lighting has been pretty quiet so far. All we've had to hand in is our painted colour wheels (not as easy as you'd think). I did a lot of paint mixing on Saturday to get the right colours, but it was a lot of fun.
AutoCad is basically computers for morons. We have only drawn a few box shapes thus far, maybe tonight will be a little more involved.
Miss you Mom & Dad, Auntie Eileen and Uncle Tom! I need my daily Mommy phone calls back. Lots of love, Pam.
I know you get back on Saturday, but I have no idea what time. Is it too soon for Stu and I to take you out for dinner on Sunday?
his is such a super idea, love reading of all your doings. Just a thought should you ever get the urge to snorkle again - I think they have glass bottom boat tours??
You must come back this weekend cos Tanner and I are in charge of things here. R & T haven't even left yet and already the well pump failed, Nicky the dog has found a way under the fence, one horse got his foot caught in fence wire.... *Sigh* GLAD YOU'RE HAVING SO MUCH FUN!!!! Luv 2 all.
