Sea Day -- 02.22.2010

We enjoyed a very relaxing day at sea on Monday.  For the first time, we left our veranda for breakfast in our main restaurant, Blu.  What a treat! 

I had vanilla buttermilk pancakes.


Scott had French toast. 



Look at the pretty butter! 
 


This is a picture of the wake our ship makes.  It's really pretty and quite fascinating to watch. 

 



We wandered around the ship for a while.  Here are a few random shots from our little walk.

 

The ship is very textural.  No matter where you turn, there's something interesting to look at.
  
  
  
 

 


After breakfast, we returned "home" to our stateroom, only to find an invitation from the captain for a bridge tour!!  SO EXCITED!!  
 

The bridge is really, really nifty.  The Equinox is one of the newest vessels on the seas, and has all of the latest technological equipment.  The ship is powered by 90,000 horsepower available in her engines.  Wowza. 

 
 

Here are some views from the port-side bridge wing, which hangs over the water, overlooking the side of the ship.  There is also a starboard wing on the other side of the ship.

 
  
 

Here we are!

 
  
  
  



After our bridge tour, we had a couple of hours to relax before our wine tasting.  Mmmm...

 
  
  
  

And that sums up our day.  Sea days are so relaxing and fun.  Just what the doctor ordered!
