It is hard to believe that I have been at sea and in Alaska for 21 days. Each day is just as interesting as the last. You will see from the pictures just how small these towns are. Seward’s main street is only about five block long. In the distance is Marathon mountain and believe it or not they actually run a marathon to the top of the mountain and back. I can’t even walk up a flight of stair without being out of breath much less running a marathon up a mountain. As the day goes on the ship empties out and fills back up. By the time we depart there will be another 1200 guests on board. It is amazing how fast the crew is able to turn the ship around.. As I sit in my cabin typing this I thought you might like to see what my cabin is like and what just one of my meals is like so I am including a couple pictures from my cabin and the duck l’orange from dinner.
Also as I sit here I listen to another rehearsal of the shows. My room is over top the stage so I get to hear every show 3 times a day. Who knows, I may be added to the show. Oh I forgot I already get to go on stage and sing with the crew and cast every week. I maybe the only priest aboard HAL ship that does it but I really do enjoy being a part of the crew and I knew the song we sing so it became pretty easy to join in with everyone else. This afternoon’s mass had about 25 people and later on I have the crew mass. I really enjoy the crew mass because the like to sing and they participate. We walk by faith as they say!
