We are on our way to Tahiti. Every day we gain an hour by putting the clock back. Since today is a sea day, the attire for dinner tonight is formal. The theme seems to be pirates: there is the front of a pirate ship in the front of the dining room, and all the waiters are dressed as pirates. Very colorful! I complimented our waiters, Widi and Wira, on how nice they looked, but they said the costumes were heavy and hot. I had not thought to bring my camera, but David had his iPhone, so we took a couple of pictures. Don't you agree with me that they looked great?
By the way, I will apologize now for some of the delays in posting
. Our internet service is not as reliable as broadband on land, and I sometimes have to make several tries to get the pictures uploaded. So that is why some of my posts are less timely than others.
Overrun by pirates!
