Almost to LA

Our last day at sea for a couple days. We went to a lecture by the British gent. He spoke on the relationship between the UK and USA. He’s so interesting to listen to. At the end when he described the US entering WW11, he became emotional. Glad somebody appreciates us. Our Trivia group got together for the last time. We will lose 6 members when they depart the ship tomorrow. We actually scored our best score but still didn’t win. Maybe we’ll recruit some winners in the new people coming aboard.

From there we went to the card room and played Five Crowns. We had a new member to our group who just learned how to play and beat the rest of us. She likes to play pinochle so we may be playing that in the future. The last photo workshop was today. He did a quick review and then opened up for questions. There weren’t many so he ended early.

Bunny is getting very frustrated that her awful cough isn’t improving very quickly so we went to see the doc again. He examined her and said lungs are clear. He gave her more cough syrup and sent us on our way. We met the card group for dinner in the dining room and had a fun dinner. One couple is leaving us tomorrow.

we saw a battleship off to the port side. Others at dinner said there were a couple more on the starboard side. We’re close to Camp Pendleton marine base. We came back to the room and got our laundry together. Luckily we found 2 washers available. Clothes are drying now.

Tomorrow is Los Angeles where our 2 friends will pick us up for lunch and a couple errands.
