This is day 2 on the ship.


Every evening, they put an event listing in our mailbox, next to our door. The sad part is, we really didn't look at it much. Just wanted to walk around and lay at the pool and eat some good food. all day long. 


This is our view from our balcony and the waters are very calm and beautiful. 


Today is BINGO DAY. Yes, Jeanne and I bought three games of Bingo. It ONLY COST $50.00 BUCKS. 

This is the theater that there have been shows and other things that go on here. But this morning we will be playing Bingo. There was a young lady that was trying to get us all worked up and to get us excited
 about playing Bingo.
The first game was four corners. Your numbers on your sheet must match the four corners. I think we go two numbers in this game. Paid off $250.00
Next one was the number needed to run 6 number diagonally. I think we got up to four numbers. Paid $350.00
The last game was a box of 9 numbers. To win. Folks I wish we saved our money. It really was not worth our time. The last game paid off $400.00
Now just think about how many people bought tickets and played. I thinking there was about 300 folks playing. TIMES $50.00 = $15,000.00. Realizing maybe there are couples like us playing. 150 cards sold. Still made around $7.500.00 Paid off $1,000 bucks. Good money maker. 
I guess it was to be part of this cruise experience. Hey, it was okay. 


I think this was our first little fellow. 
I think he is a pig. But our Steward (Jegadeesh) he went beyond. He was willing to do this and that, with no question why. The reason I say that is, our refrigerator seemed like it was not working. He told us it is working, just needs a few minutes to cool off. I couldn't open our balcony door up. I was thinking I was getting weaker. But it was really stuck. He pushed and pulled a couple of times, and it opened up. 
Oh, just to let you know the doors to your cabin are very heavy and need to push more than you think. I guess that keeps them watertight. 


We decided to have lunch in the fancy dining room. Had to wait a few minutes but we sat down, and it was very nice. 





I had the Calm Chowder and Jeanne had the Shrimp Cocktail. The chowder was pretty good; Jeanne was thinking a little bit bigger shrimp. 
Just a note, while sitting there this restaurant was in the bow to the ship. So, you could really feel the ship rocking here and there. But during my time on the ship, I never had any issues with sea sickness. 
When I first started going out in Jeanne's boat, I would feel some sickness happening. I bought some bands to put on my wrest. They helped me out during those times. 


I think Jeanne got the steak and mashed potatoes and mixed veggies. I got the shrimp and mashed potatoes, plus broccoli. We both enjoyed our meals.  


I am not really sure what my little girl got. 


I know I got the pineapple cake. Really after eating our meals. We both thought the buffet was better. Oh, well we tried and now we know. Not that big of a deal at all. It was free, did tip. 


So, we headed back to our cabin and saw a new little guy sitting there waiting for us. Relaxed the rest of the evening watching a couple of oldies movies. The Waterfront. It was in black and white, and Marlon Brando was very young, and he worked at the docks, plus he had a temper and loved to fight. I guess they said this movie won 8 Academy Awards. It was real acting and very good. 
Got a great night of rest, tomorrow we will be pulling into Cozumel. Mexico. 
Well folks today is July 11, Friday. Since we have been back home, have been trying to get caught up on all the things that are needed to get done. 
While home we have been setting our traps in the back yard again, we still have something eating of Jeanne's mangos, on the trees. Then knocking them down to eat more. We caught two more squirrels. We let them go in the White City Park. Hey, there is plenty of other squirrel there and other animals. 


This morning, we caught a baby possum back in our yard. I drove him or her over to the park and dropped it off. They sure have some teeth. He or she was not a happy camper at all. 



I got to the park and opened the cage and he or she took off and then turned around and starter heading towards me. I guess he or she realized I was not going to hurt him and her. I just drove off know he or she will find some new friends and live happily. 
Okay, back to the Word of God. I am reading Job still and now his three friends are listening to him sharing how he has not sinned. 
Then Eliphaz's response to Job in Chapter 4 and 5. Then job shared more about what he was telling them. Chapter 7 Job Cries Out to God. #8 Bildad's first Response to Job. #9 Job's response back at him. #10 is Job Pleading with God. #11 Zophar's first Response to Job. #12 is Job responding back to Zophar. Tomorrow I will be reading #13 and #14. 
Folks you need to remember Job has lost everything, daughters, sons, cattle donkeys and camels.
It was all Satin's work. Please remember Job still has not sinned and he is just trying to figure things out, WHY ME? 
All I know is I am very blessed and really want to do things more for Him. 
Please keep on praying for your families and friends that don't know Jesus Christ as their savor.
