Movie in post—may take some time to download.

In an earlier post Caroline talked about people doing weird things while away from home. Well, check this out. That is Vinnie from South Philly (Vince from the Philippines) who makes a great martini, Caroline who looks like she is working with them, and Chris from North Philly (also from the Philippines) who is best server/bartender on the ship. And, both of them are super funny and personable.

The show was a talent show. Five cruisers were contestants and they were quite good. And five of the performers wrote original songs about the cruise which were also judged. The cruisers were all good and the performers songs were really funny. 

After dinner we went to hear John Fulbright. He is a singer-songwriter from Oklahoma (the same town Woody Guthrie is from). We really like him. Here is an excerpt from his song “Gawd Above”. The guitarist, bassist, and the drummer are from the house band that plays with GK on stage. All dynamite musicians as can tell. It’s actually a very spiritual song.
