Another relaxing day.

Today, seems to be rush hour on the ocean.  For the first time since leaving the Canary Islands, we saw two ships.  Practically a traffic jam considering we are in the middle of the ocean.

Enrichment Talks.  This morning one on The Math of Beauty.  On the mathematics of how many buildings from ancient to most of DC was designed to show mathematics.

After playing cards and a quick lunch, I took off to the next talk.

Second talk today was “The Queens of the Seas” about Ocean Liners.  Not Cruise Liners which are for pleasure trips.  Ocean Liners were designed to be for transport from one continent to the other.  For many years they were THE way for passengers to get across oceans.

For many years, docks would be lined with liners waiting to unload and reload for the next trip across the Atlantic.

The Blue Riband is a record of the fastest trips by an Ocean liner across the Atlantic.
The United States ocean liner still holds the record but sadly it is permanently kept at dock unmaintained and in very bad shape.

Tonight a magician.  He was really good.
