We watched the rain, and ate some lunch, played guitar, wrote a song. I have to say, what seemed like would be a dreary afternoon turned out to be one of the most relaxing days I’ve had so far on this ship. Sitting outside on the deck is really nice, and sometimes you get to see some funny stuff. For instance, I witnessed a completely random, no-holds-barred water fight between Jens and Joy. Jens was sitting out on the deck with us, when Joy walked by and flicked some water at him. He then took his dining room cup of full of lemonade, threw the lemonade over the side of the deck, scooped up some rain water off the floor of the deck, and threw the water at her— which, of course, she couldn’t let him get away with. What resulted was a water fight of epic proportions:
Even though it looks like Joy got owned in the pictures, I declared her the default winner of the water fight, because Jens eventually ran away.AND, to make my day even better, I got to finally see the flying dumpster! The galley
has two dumpsters that it uses, and every day, the deck department opens up the roof above the dumpsters (the roof opens up to deck 8), hooks up the dumpsters to the crane, and then lifts them straight up into the sky. I’ve always wondered where they took the dumpsters to empty them, and today I got to see where it goes. We were eating lunch when Annie Lou said nonchalantly, “Oh look, flying dumpster,”— I look behind me, and lo and behold, a flying dumpster! I don’t know why exactly that made me so excited, but it totally did.
