 Bill with Bruce McGill
 View from our Veranda as we sailed into Honolulu
 Honolulu from our Veranda

Well we had another great day aboard the ship.  We started to see land around 2pm ut we were just drifting.  We docked at 4pm and were off the ship in no time.  Got on the 1st shuttle bus to get to the Apple Store.  We spend 2 1/2 hours there where they set up Bill's IPAD and synched my IPAD, IPHONE and IMAC all together so now all my contacts are on each and my calendars.....  We then walked around the mall a little and took the shuttle back to the ship.

Tomorrow we have a tour of the USArizona (Pearl Harbor) and Punchbowl cemetery as well as a tour around the city of Honolulu. More on that tomorrow.

This afternoon Bruce McGill gave a great lecture on being a character actor.  Bruce has starred in over 140 movies.  He was in Animal House, My cousin Vinny (sheriff) Runaway Jury (Judge) .  He explained how he and his wife were at LAX and a women kept starring and pointing at him when he boarded the plane the flight attendant came over and said" A passenger in the back thinks you are someone important, are you?  He was funny and posed for a picture with Bill.

Bill and I have been playing backgammon and I know Elaine asked.  We have played 8 games and so far the score is
Celeste 6  Bill 2.  The Maitre D Leo loves backgammon and wants   to play us.  I told him Bill would love to play and he needs the practice.  Bill keeps saying I have Elaine's luck.  Can't help it if I am a better player than he is.  Anyway enough for today we have an early early morning wake up 6:30am.  Tomorrow evening they are having a Hawaiian luau upstairs by the pool and at 9:30 local entertainment will be on.  We set sail at midnight for Maui.  Right now we are 5 hours behind NY, 3 hours behind AZ.
So more tomorrow.  If you want to comment you need to go to where it says comment and click on it.  If you do not have a google (gmail account) you can still go in as annonymous but please sign so I know who is saying what.  Thanks
Good night and God Bless.
