The ship is now in the North Atlantic Ocean and we woke to our first heavy downpour of the trip. Most of the day has been fine after that and the temperature warm but not hot. The sea is the flattest yet.
We read the Anzac Day messages on Facebook from our grandchildren and a ceremony was held on board by the Catholic priest.
There were a few interesting sessions today. Ian Brown, the retired policeman, told us about his time in the Virgin Islands arresting drug dealers from Columbia and Porto Rico. Then we saw the movie "Mr Turner", a 150 minute depiction of the artist as an old grump. It was slow moving but very informative and covered many big names of the era. Much more entertaining than "Birdman".
After dining with our four friends we sat down in the Royal Court for a musical concert by Michael Grant, who played six different instruments. His finale was "Islands in the Stream" as a duet with a Saxophone for Kenny and a clarinet for Dolly, even playing both at once.
