5 sea days until Tahiti

We have 5 sea days before Tahiti. The luxury of 5 sea days in a row provides the feeling of a complete lack of urgency to do anything. I took some pain medication for my back due to the rough roads on Easter Island. It makes you sleepy and a little dizzy. With the relaxed sea day and the affect of the medication, I had a very lazy day and felt like I could drop off to sleep at any minute.

Unfortunately during my water exercises my motion sickness came back. The ship's movement was noticeable but not exceptionally large. I'm wondering if the pain medication has something to do with it because I did not get the immediate relief from ginger that I usually do.

The weather today was wonderfully warm and the sea was the most beautiful deep blue. During the day I wore the T-shirt I got on Easter Island. I will certainly increase my T-shirt collection on this trip.

Today was our first time change. We are going to have another on the 31st so I will be back to Mountain Time.

Tonight was our second formal night. I went up to dinner so that I could see all the beautiful gowns but then came back to my cabin to rest my back.
