No Class Day!

Today was a day at sea without classes – yay!  We all thought there would be a lifeboat drill like there has been on every other no class day, but instead we were woken up with the Price is Right theme song playing over the intercom at 10:00am.  This was to let us know that the shipboard auction had opened up for the day.  They had been collecting items donated by people throughout the voyage and then there was a silent auction throughout the day and a live auction at night.  I just rolled over and slept in a little more in the morning until lunch around noon.  Then I was productive and got a lot of work done for my classes throughout the day which was nice.  Later I went by the silent auction to see what they had and I bid on a pedicure at the ship salon and also for 2 Chicago style deep dish pizzas to be sent anywhere in the country.  I would obviously have them sent to school which would be delicious, but I didn’t win because I didn’t bid very high.  I went into see the live auction at night which was really funny because they had a lot of the teachers auctioning off items.  There was a lot of cool stuff auctioned off and it went for like thousands of dollars (highest being $2500) so I clearly wasn’t bidding, just watching to see the entertainment.  Other than that it has been a pretty relaxing day and I was productive which was cool.  Tomorrow is another regular class day so that will probably not be exciting but it is good to be all caught up on rest.  We gain back another hour tonight en route to Morocco!
