At Sea – February 19, 2018

Woke up to a rainy, cool day (high was only in the mid-60s) so I did not go to water aerobics.

About seven of us at Sit and Stitch.  Judy (one of the three Judys in our group) found the knitting needle I had lost almost a week ago.

All present for morning trivia and we again came in one off of the winner who had 12.

1)What “p” word describes a group of parrots?

2)Who was Jane Porter’s significant other?

3)Who wrote “Roll Over Beethoven”?

4)The swan is native to which country?

5)What is the name of the drive-in in Happy Days?

I had a burger from the Dive-In for lunch. 

We made an owl pincushion in arts and crafts.  Afterwards I sat and read and knitted until time for afternoon trivia.

Only five of us for trivia. The theme was numbers and it was hard.  We ended up with 9 out of 21 with the winners having 15. The six bonus points were based on how close each team came to the actual total of adding all of the answers (we got one).

1)How many bones in the hand?

2)How many elements on the periodic chart?

3)How many time zones in Canada?

4)How many eyelids (per eye) on a camel?

5)How many watts in one horsepower of energy?

Once again we stayed and talked after trivia.

Listened to Jamm for about a half hour before dinner.  There were only four of us so we sat at a smaller table to make it easier to talk.  I had a ham croquette, Korean boneless beef ribs, and an apple sundae for dessert.

The show tonight was a documentary by the BBC.  HAL and the BBC partnered up recently.  This presentation was called “Frozen Planet Live”.  The band along with the Adagio duo played the music for the scenes about life in the Arctic and the Antarctic.  Absolutely amazing photography.

We gain another hour tonight.  Albany tomorrow.
