Not A Good Day For Whale Watching!

All night long as we steamed ever northward, we heard the mournful sound of the ship's foghorn.  And still it regularly announces our presence in the midst of a thick blanket of gray.  The captain tells us it will stay this way for the rest of today, and possibly into tomorrow as well, so there's no chance of spotting any of the whales we have been told are swimming around this part of the North Atlantic!  (Some lucky passengers on the other side of the ship from our cabin did see a whale yesterday at around lunch time, though.)

A good day for reading, napping, and playing backgammon, then!
