Sea Day III En route to St. Helena

When I looked again, at the picture I sent yesterday, I noticed that it looked very blue. I have no filters to color pictures. I had taken others at the same time and they too looked very blue. I’m looking out at the ocean today. It is again fairly smooth and it is again sunny and clear. The Ocean does look that blue. I have no idea why the ocean is so blue here but that really is the color.

Very exciting day. We went out on the balcony and were watching the flying fish. Bobbi fell asleep. We missed lunch. They owe us one. We will have to do two tomorrow. We watched lectures on tours and one on St. Helena, how it was formed and how other volcanic islands were formed. Part of a lecture on South Africa. Slept through the other half. We forgot to run five miles, again.

Our favorite waiter had a late day today and a temporary took our dinner order. The waiters are almost all from the Philippines. All the waiters speak at least pretty good English. Some understand it far better then others.

When our regular guy came in he was laughing so hard we though he might be ill. We found out what the problem was. The Temp was very confused. It seams someone at our table had ordered warm vomit. He could not find it on the menu and when he inquired in the kitchen they threw him out. He still was very seriously looking for it but no one would tell him. I wonder who at our table would have done such a thing. Must have been Bobbi.
