Good morning. There was an event at 930 I wanted to do "walk a mile with Erin" but I was sleeping good so I just kept sleeping. I'll just do my walking alone again 😁. I got my first invite to a diamond gathering. That will be today at noon. They had a group go yesterday so a lot of diamonds onboars for this journeys cruise. Today I think is the better option because yesterday was the unique lunch menu and today they are serving brunch again.

On the way out my mom had to rave about how good her pork chop was. I mentioned I liked the different menu and they said the crew were excited too because they cook the same 7-8 menus every week so they were excited to cook something different. The dining room was empty tonight so not everyone shared in our excitement 😆. They missed out on a great meal.

My mom's starter was the stir dry buckwheat pasta. She enjoyed this dish. For my starters I got the corn fritters and pineapple and cucumber salad. The fritters were good. The salad was a salad lol. I enjoyed it though. For mains I got the teriyaki pork chop and the fish and shrimp. The fish was good but that pork chop? Fantastic. My mom got it also and it's her favorite thing this trip. Dessert was the red velvet cake with a very unique presentation.

My food photos don't help you visualize where I am? Right now I'm between lunch and dinner, although I am approaching dinner and just waiting for clearance from the local authorities. All kidding aside, I will have photos of my stops in Alaska in the next few days but it is a slow process uploading them one at a time to my photo host. I won't have any additional pics of Ketchikan I have posted all i have. I also won't have much of the additional ports as my mom's mobility will not allow for it unless her pain eases up. Seattle and Alaska have done her in. I will rustle up a visual of the itinerary and post it later.

When I went to lunch my mom was next on standby. She is still next. Everyone is showing up for their appointment glad I didn't hang around. I don't think I'm going to wait I'll try again later in the cruise. Lunch was great. I'd like to see this more often but I suspect if it gets popular it won't be as good. Nice quiet empty dining room and the food was super hot which is not something I can say often about cruise food. Same menu as last week but I'll post again since it isn't a common menu. I ordered the chicken cutlet. Very generous portion and very tasty. I also got the beef stew. For dessert I had the vacation sundae.
