Today was enjoyable, but I’m not feeling my best. I plan to take medication tonight, so I’m refraining from doing so now. I’m experiencing discomfort in my head, throat, and body.

Today felt quite long and hectic. Tommy rented a car, which was a relief due to the nonstop rain. We began our day with a leisurely breakfast in the main dining room, where I enjoyed an omelet and some fruit. Pardon my writing, but I’m a little tipsy at the moment after three consecutive alcoholic…
Day 3 Ketchikan
We awoke just as we pulled into port. After getting ready for the day, we headed to the buffet for breakfast. I arrived in the dining room just in time to see the fresh scrambled eggs being prepared, so I helped myself to some, along with bacon, hash browns, and fruit. After eating, we returned…
