Day 65(March 10)- Cruising the Bay of Bengal/Crossing the Laccadive sea

Today is a sea day and another time change. The time change is 30 minutes forward. Time changes actually go quite well other than we have no idea how far off we are from our home time. We can look up the home time quickly tho.

We are so close to the equator the sunrise and sunset are almost exactly 12 hours apart! I have a sunrise picture at 6:47am and a sunset picture at 6:33pm.

We had another country fair where each department mans a game booth. Some of the games are the same as prior country fairs and some are different. Passengers play for tickets that are entered into a raffle. If you do well in the game you get multiple tickets otherwise you get one for participating.

For the boutique booth, they bring out 10 or so items and you’re to guess the total amount it would be to purchase those items. I have never even gotten close to guessing the correct amount. When they look at my guess, they actually say ‘you’re not even close’!

Jennifer does quite well with the destinations game booth where they have 9 pictures and you guess the location of each picture. She got all correct today.

Neither Jennifer nor I have won a raffle prize yet- no matter how many tickets we have. The fun thing is we now know so many people on board, we know the folks who are winning!
