Day 7 Friday January 8, 2010- Sea Day

This was a “do nothing” day.  We had lunch with a couple from our table.  Mike and ?… Mike was a physiology and PT prof at U. Pitt.  He looks like Yogi Berra.  We got tangentially into politics and from their into religion.  It is clear the Ms is “anti-religion.”  She considers the religious right as scary and dangerous.

I worked on genealogy in the morning.  I finished the Mayflower book.  I’m writing about the Leete family and Indians- there’s some key information in the  book about the chief that William Leete dealt with from the time he landed at Guilford. 

I did the genealogy of a couple of the early Leete women.  I can’t go on line, but I’m removing the information I had on them from the main William Leete tree and giving each of them their own tree.

I’m not eating lunch, but snacking about 3 or 4 on something.  Today it was some nuts and two oatmeal cookies. 

I went to the exercise room.  No one there!  I did a half hour on the eliptical and a half hour on yoga.  I feel much better. 

Then I went to the movie Papillion, which was filmed partly on Devil’s Island – the 3 island group.  We got an idea (true?) of what the penal colonies were like.  I assume we also saw some of the scenery around the area. 

Today is a rough day at sea.  Not as bad as the some of the Pacific days, but we are throwing some big splashes as we crash into the swells.  The weather is mostly sunny with temps “warm.”
