The ship did
broadcast the super bowl! I think I
wrote earlier that we thought it would be on at 11:30 AM our time…nope. We are constantly moving the clock forward as
we move eastward, losing an hour or so every couple of days, it gets
confusing. The super bowl actually began
at 4:30 AM our time on Monday. Unfortunately
for us it was also a night we were moving the clock forward so it really felt
like 3:30 AM to us.
Fred set his
alarm and we did get up and watch the game.
I watched the first two series and then took a shower but otherwise we
saw the whole game. We saw the Fox
broadcast and the half time show but didn’t get to see all the great commercials. We were watching a feed from ESPN and they
showed the same promos over and over again, mostly about upcoming cricket
matches.
We ordered
breakfast in so that was nice. We were able
to sit and watch while eating. We
thought the game was just so-so, really not much better than a regular season
game. We really don’t root for either
team but we were hoping to see the 49’rs win this one because their quarterback
used to be with our team. Fred took a
nap right after the game and I took one a little later on. We really needed them.
We have one
more day at sea and then we’re in Columbo, Sri Lanka. Since we’ve been there before we’re just
going to take the shuttle into town and see what’s around. Tonight, we have to turn the clocks ahead one-half
hour…really. I remember this from when
we were here before but I don’t remember why Sri Lanka is in their own little
time zone bubble.
