TUESDAY, APR 27TH--AT SEA

I am a day behind on writing. I got sidetracked yesterday as received an email from Toni & Tom, our friends back in Pensacola, Florida. We have cruised with them a couple of times plus went to Las Vegas with them last July. Toni said they were going to Las Vegas for 5 nights from June 28th to July 3rd to celebrate their 47th anniversary and Tom’s birthday and wanted us to come along. Why not!! So I spent most of the day trying to get it booked. With the snail pace internet here on ship I had problems with either Travelocity timing out or my internet session timing out. Took some time to get booked on same flights as they will be flying through DFW on way to Vegas. Finally got it all booked. I also managed to get the photos I took in Togo and Ghana edited and ready to upload but it was after 4pm by then and had to go to the gym and workout for a couple of hours. We had dinner with our friends from Chicago, Karen & Larry. Larry really helped me a lot prior to this World Cruise as they had done one in 2007. Yesterday we sailed offshore of the Ivory Coast and last night offshore Liberia. It was a cloudy day with an occasional rain shower and some thunderstorms last night but the ride is smooth so no complaints.
