The Healy was on its way home to Seattle from its final scientific
cruise of 2011 when it was diverted to cut a path through the
Bering Sea ice for a Russian fuel tanker.
Anyways this is what my first middle - aged 24 hours on a
cruise looked like, from a blog I wrote called Lots of
B Words: «Last night after a delectable Kahlua Butterball (which Sister assures me is usually called a Cocksucking Cowboy, but this is a family
cruise), I took a weary Sprog 2 back to our cabin for an early night while the rest of our party adjourned to the Aurora Theatre for «Production Showtime starring The Royal Caribbean Singers and Dancers with The Radiance of the
Seas Orchestra in Piano Man» (catchy), a tribute to the music of Billy Joel, Elton John, Stevie Wonder and Barry Manilow.
