Advanced one time zone during the night. Attended another talk today – this one was entitled The Colliding Worlds of Marco Polo and Christopher Columbus. It was mostly about development of trade routes through the changes in various empires and then emphasis on how Columbus came to cross the Atlantic. The speaker, who researched and developed his presentations is a long time sailor from England. It turned out that we sat at lunch with the speaker who does an alternate program – currently doing talks on pirates.
We are having a relaxing day – spent some time by the pool on the aft deck, and enjoyed the ship crew April Fool's humor
