Figure this out: Late on Friday, February 1, we crossed the International Dateline. When we woke up the following morning, it was Sunday, February 3. We had totally missed Groundhog Day!
Also, we find that the Super Bowl has migrated one day into the future with us. In this alternate shipboard universe, the game will be broadcast live this Monday afternoon on a big screen, or we can watch it on the TV in our room.
I wonder, where is the day we lost? Is it being held in escrow somewhere, to be returned at some future date? And where oh where is the poor groundhog? If this is our biggest worry, maybe we have been at sea too long. That will change soon, as we are approaching New Zealand, where we will visit several ports.
In the meantime, some passengers work on gigantic jigsaw puzzles,
Some knit or crochet items to be sent to Project Linus, for children in need,
And all enjoy the great food that is available all over the ship.
