Today has found me with nothing to do as the guests refuse to move from the Lido (open air) deck, instead choosing to lay about the pool sleeping on deck chairs. The international crew shake their collective heads in dismay at the "Lazy Americans" who sleep their vacations away. What they don't realize is how much Americans in general burn themselves out with the hectic American lifestyle. There are certainly volumes to be said about this, but not at this time.
I find myself on the upper deck watching the flying fish of the Southern Pacific ocean. They seem to be attracted to the ship, and can be seen flying away from it for at least 50 feet. Its an amazing feat of evolution to have a fish that can fly out of the water for such a distance. I cannot think of a more unlikely combination of traits that evolution has brought forth, with the exception of Merv Griffin (of course).
