Day 5 – At Sea (May 3)

By noon today we were about 800 miles from Ft. Lauderdale with about 2000 miles to go to the first port. The air temperature is 73F and the water temperature is 77F with a wind of 35 mph. The seas are up to 10-12 feet waves and the ride is getting a little bumpy, with the ship pitching back and forth as well as up and down. It made the dance lesson we took a little tricky as the upper deck where it was held is most affected by the pitching. In the afternoon the pools were closed with the water drained to prevent it sloshing onto the decks. Jeanne has been a little seasick, but so far I am fine.
