June 27: A day at sea

A day at sea sailing from Germany to Latvia. Kurt especially is really getting used to the cruising life. Kathy had picked a very nice vessel from a very nice line (Oceania) for his first cruise. And Kurt is already looking over the brochures for another cruise (180 days around the world anyone?) Kurt takes a painting class and Kathy exercises and sun bathes. The storm that followed them from Amsterdam to Copenhagen has moved on ahead and we enjoy sunny, calm weather. Together we play mini-golf and paddle tennis onboard. We take a ballroom dance class (DWTS clearly not in our future) and enjoy a reception with the Captain. After dinner from the buffet on the stern deck overlooking the Baltic Sea, we head down to the lounge to watch our dancing instructors in a "Malibu Beach" song and dance show.
