Day 41 - Saturday - 5/06/17 - At sea in Gulf of Alaska

I woke up this morning with a full on cold and congestion.  It was a bit of a struggle to lead the morning interdenominational service, but I made it through it.  There was a full schedule of 3 lectures plus the Ask The Captain Q&A session.  The quantum mechanics lecture was first and it was truly weird.  Terry Greenberg followed with a great lecture on Russian expansion into Alaska.  

After lunch I attended the America's Test Kitchen presentation on Chocolate, then the Captain's Q&A, and concluded the afternoon with Harry Strong's presentation on what causes movement in the ocean.  After this activity I collapsed and took a 2 1/2 hour nap which was refreshing.  

Savanna Jack was the evening's entertainment.  They are a high energy band from Nashville and they did a tribute to songs from 1955 to 1975.  It's their first time performing on HAL ships. It was so good we went back for the 10pm performance.
