Day 8 doesn't get its own entry. Nothing really happened, except for some shopping and a magician. I bought a Pacific Jewel teddy bear and named him Bijou. The magician, James Callea, was particularly impressive.
Well, at least the ship is standing up straight again. It spent much of the morning with a quite significant Port-side lean, which meant the shower nearly flooded and made it quite an uphill struggle to get out of the cabin. They managed to straighten it in the middle of breakfast, though the rolling is still significant. It is very windy, enough so that they have closed most of the open decks.
We're currently in the Atrium in the centre of the ship, watching some mad people in a putting competition, on a moving floor across multiple levels and smooth wooden floors. Stacks of seasickness bags have begun to decorate the stairwells and hallways, which may be a sign of weather to come.
