January 29, 2026- Day#25

 This is our only day at sea for this segment of the cruise ( Rio de Janeiro to Buenos Aires). Therefore a lot to cram into this one day. Slept in to 7:30 then had to get moving. We were planning to go to the main dining room for a breakfast of Eggs Benedict but made a last minute change to our usual breakfast buffet with omelette, fruit, and yogurt. Then off to bocce ball, Joan to needlepoint and me to a photography class (as you can see from my posted photos, I need more classes). Lori, the on board speaker gave two lectures today on some upcoming ports and marine life. Also heard another talk from the cruise specialist about the upcoming itinerary of Oceania cruises and their new ship. Joan went to a South American cuisine cooking class and got to eat and drink her results. I did not get any of this because I stepped out of my comfort zone and got an acupuncture treatment for my shoulder and back issues. Not sure if it is worth trying another treatment. Dinner was in the main dining room with some friends to catch up on our latest adventures. Evening entertainment was a high energy performance from the ship’s entertainers.  One of the dancers reported earlier in the day that after this show, due to the high energy expended, she is exhausted. After the show I could understand what she meant. Didn’t I tell you this was a very busy day!
