Sea/Vigo/Sea

Nov 2nd-4th
Sea/Vigo/Sea

The 2nd was our sea day spent leaving the Canaries. We played our “Once upon a time” production show, and that was probably about it for the day. I got in trouble again for being too supportive of my fellow cast members, so for now on I’m saying absolutely nothing and being completely silent till they feel bad about telling me to stop having a good time…it’ll happen, just you watch.
The 3rd, our last stop in Vigo, I spent on the ship with my Vigo friend. She’d never been on a ship, so I filled out the paper work, signed her on for a few hours, gave her the full tour and grabbed lunch. It was funny seeing her reaction to some of the things that I’ve been taking for granted the past few months, like the fact that there are elevators on a ship. It was a nice time, she had fun, but it’ll probably be the last time I see her for a long time, if not forever. We had the night off that day as well, so another nice and easy day (not)working on the ship.
And the 4th was our farewell show day. Shawn leaves tomorrow though, the tenor player. It’s too bad because he’s a great sax player and I really liked playing with him. I don’t know who this new guy is coming aboard tomorrow, no one seems to have any idea. Hopefully that’ll all work out fine and he can fill the shoes that Shawn’s leaving. But all that aside, nothing too special these last 3 days, and tomorrow, we leave England for the last time while I’ll be on the ship. Crazy!
