Stockholm

June 28th
Stockholm

Another day, another tour. Yep, I guess the first one went alright and they’re letting me do another one. The tour today was a simple Old Town walking tour. It wasn’t my first choice (which was the ice bar) but it was short and got me back to the ship in time for rehearsal. The tour was decent, nothing more than a guided walk. I’ve been to Stockholm before and had walked through this part of the city during the overnight we spent there on the Navigator, so it was nice going back in daylight and learning about the area.
Back on the ship, instead of another day of crazy work outs (of which my legs still hurt but my arms escaped unscathed), I again joined my friend Michael up in the gym for a session of power yoga, again done with the help of this extreme DVD series. The 90 minute yoga course wasn’t easy, in fact, I made it about 50 minutes before feeling I’d had enough. Maybe one of these days I’ll get to the point where I can do these sessions correctly without sacrificing my mobility for half a week, but till that point, I guess I’ll just have to continue my complaining here on the blog, ha.
That night the ship had a wine and chocolate party for the crew. Yeah, I’m sure you’re all thinking “Chocolate? Shouldn’t it be Wine and Cheese?” but seeing all we really care about here on the ship is free food, no one had any objections. Nothing terribly exciting though to tell you about, I just ate a lot of chocolate and ended up playing ping pong till 2:30 in the morning, you know, the usual. Well that’s all for today, seeya!
